TwitterRemote by TwitterCounter

I like this nifty new javascript widget from TwitterCounter.com. You can get TwitterRemote for your blog using the TwitterRemote widget customizer. Check it out for yourself, too.

A related project of theirs is My Twitter Weighs a ton which is a list of terms most often found in people's first tweets. Do you see that none of the top 100 terms are negative? The terms frustrated and confused don't make the list. Perhaps twitter attracts people to use it who are less change-averse than average. Or perhaps twitter manages new user sign up with such ease that those reactions aren't prevalent.
