Programmers make websites do whatever they want.

Dennis, well, subscribing isn't what I actually care about with the account. Some people will subscribe to get the reminder, and that's totally cool. The real value here is the concept of the account. How else might one use Twitter like this to grow a group of followers that meet a certain niche's target audience? Once you find that, you will then find yourself with followers that you can then begin to display other links and tweets too. I think a chiropractor would love an account like this. A baker might do the same by creating a list of helpful tweets and automating those tweets to provide a benefit to the follower, and also grow their followers over time. When they are ready, and have figured out what they really want to use Twitter for, they then have a collection of followers ready to listen! Tammy, always welcome, and thank you!

I doubt I will subscribe to it though because sitting up straight the whole time might not be the best either. Personally I vary my chair posture every half hour or so, otherwise it gets too uncomfortable. I slouch, put my feet on the seat, put my legs up, sit straight etc. All kinds of stuff which is actually a form of exercise and helps with blood circulation. Or so I hope. ;o) Interesting idea.

I always think of Pink Floyd the wall and the school teacher. Not sure why, he never says sit up straight. Only something about pudding and meat..hehe Carolyn, yes. There are a couple different twitter related services that when used together, can provide a great way to automate the tweets so you can walk away from it once it's set up. You'll have to wait for the next Twitter post, because I honestly don't recall at this moment the url for the site, lol. Manz, ok that’s pretty funny.

As soon as I saw this post, I recognised the account! My main memory regarding "sitting up straight" is being at school as a kid (around 7 years old) and everyone in class trying to sit up the straightest (is that a word!?) to get an early mark and go home 5 minutes before everyone else :) Our posture was so exaggerated that I'm surprised we didn't all tip over.
