Tweet to Shoot allows users to fire Nerf Guns at virtual ducks

Twitter has been known to be a pretty powerful way to express your thoughts on just about anything under the sun. Well, you can now use this micro-blogging website to shoot ducks! The ducks aren’t real and the gun sure as hell doesn’t carry real bullets. Instead, Neiman Labs dug into the Twitter AP and with the help of a regular Nerf Gun, an Arduino Uno microcontroller, and the classic Duck Hunt interface, the guys have come up with Tweet to Shoot. Using the #TweetToShoot, you can now shoot at these virtual ducks and have your name up on the scoreboard. All said and done, this seems to be an interesting mix of toys, old videogame interfaces and social networking!
