Twitter develops online bingo application, TwitterINGO

Everyone’s favourite online social nhetworking site, Twitter, has launched its first ever online gaming application. The application will be called TwitterINGO and has been developed by an interactive marketing agency based in Atlanta, Definition 6.

TwitterIngo is a desktop application that uses keywords instead of numbers being called. Players are given a set of 25 keywords to play with, which comes from a pool of keywords developed from ‘tweets’ posted by those followed on twitter by the players.

The winner unfortunately doesnt play for cash, rather for the honour of having the ‘I won TwitterINGO’ badge which can be placed on twitter or other sites such as FaceBook so that the winner can bask in glory! The game is currently only played one per week on Tuesday at 3pm EST, which is 8pm UK time.

Definition 6 are also going to put up a board that lists those players that contribute most to winning boards, which will be available on the TwitterINGO page.

“Definition 6 looks forward to providing all Twitter fans and users with another engagingway to enjoy the micro-blogging site and to interact with their social networking community”.
