Using some simple word play, Shitter has started a business selling toilet paper that has tweets printed on it. To sweeten the deal, however, the tweets aren’t just random tweets, they’re directly from the feed of the customer.
When ordering the toilet paper, one has the option of choosing tweets from their main feed or from their timeline. If one doesn’t want their own words on the bathroom tissue, they can choose to have the tweets from anyone’s feed printed on their loo roll. That means if one so chooses, they could wipe their bum with the words of Kanye West of Hilary Clinton.
Shitter will attract consumers because of its comical, ironic appeal.

Lady Gaga has become the first person to reach 18 million followers on Twitter. This week she tweeted: “Can’t believe I have 18,000,000 TwitterMonsters, really rad, was just a few years ago I had barely any.”
Last year, the star became the first person to tally 10 million followers on Twitter. Gaga outranks Canadian pop star Justin Bieber by nearly two million fans, and American performer Katy Perry, who takes third with 13.9 million followers.
Gaga has more than 46 million followers on Facebook, and yesterday she announced her new Google+ page, with some 10,900 followers so far.
Her latest album “Born This Way”, released in May, reached No. 1 on album charts in 28 countries.

Kanye West hand-stitched and framed Tweets, priced at $40 each by Etsy seller Supervelma aka Drop Dead Quirky has caused a bit of a sensation. In addition to Kanye’s Tweets, Supervelma has done custom stitched designs featuring Ice Cube, and even a portrait of the insanely loveable Chewbacca (clutching heart over here!) Unfortunately for those who want one, the attention this clever idea has invited has left Supervelma and her ten fingers a bit overwhelmed, and while yes, she promises she can stitch your favorite idea by X-mas, you will have to wait until the one that falls in 2012 to give it as a gift.
