That Can Be My Next Tweet is a microapp that parses a Twitter stream of your choosing and autogenerates an often incoherent, random string of phrases. Once the string is generated, you can choose to ponder its deeper meaning in solitude or share it with the world via your Twitter account.
The premise is that any given user’s tweets tend to follow the same themes, mention the same topics and places, and include the same exclamations, filler words and abbreviations. And while some of the autogenerated tweets seem plausible enough, especially for news- or headline-oriented feeds like @Mashable, other autogenerated strings are nothing short of hilarious.
Or, as one Twitter friend noted, the app “sort of makes me sound like the villain from Robin Hoo d, Men in Tights.”
And not so strangely enough, we could barely tell the difference between @CharlieSheen‘s real tweets and the ones generated by the app.
We apologize in advance for slaying your Tuesday afternoon productivity. Here’s a tour of auto-tweets the app generated for a few streams we follow:
