TwitPanto Performance on Twitter brings the house down.
I wrote a brief piece about this to try and help promote the idea. But the phenomenon of twitter created a huge following for what’s turned out to be a fantastic achievement for Jon Bounds and the rest of the #twitpanto team with their fabulous panto performed in the wacky world of twitter.com
If you’re wondering what happened, what people said, and what all the fuss was about, then I recommend you take a look at a great website by Matthew Somerville where he’s done some fantastic scripting to hack through all the tweets and bring you the whole ‘performance‘.

Watch out, It’s Behind You – Jon Bounds is creating a twitpanto!
What on earth am I on about you might say.
Well, in a nutshell, this chap called Jon Bounds has gathered friends and acquaintances to create a twitter panto.
I know what a panto is, but what’s twitter?
Twitter is a micro blogging phenomenon with millions of users across the world, sort of like Facebook status updates but without all the crap.
So twitpanto then, what’s that?
Well, apparently all will be evident from 2pm on Tuesday 23rd December, as Twitpanto takes to the virtual stage and dozens of twitterers hide behind the curtains of the internet. Good luck to everyone involved, and what was that … it’s behind me?
