Little Shop of Twitters

Lots of folks are marveling at this real-life mashup between a houseplant, a mobile phone, and Twitter. The smarty-pants over at Botanicalls have created a very interesting monster—when your plant needs water, it sends out a Twitter update that reaches you anywhere in the world. And once it's received water, it sends out another by way of thanks.If you want to hook your own plants up to Twitter, Make Magazine has created this handy how-to. Also, if you're really looking for a good time, you can follow this plant on Twitter. It hasn't been watered in 3 days. What will happen!?

Great idea, especially for those who live alone and travel a lot. But despite the update who will water the plant if the owner is away? :p

Btw, is that a Treo 680? :)
