Tweeting Bra: Sends Tweets Every Time It's Unclasped
by JON DAVID KAHN  28 Oct 2013

A Greek marketing group has created the first "Tweeting Bra" as part of a campaign from Nestle Fitness for October's Breast Cancer Awareness Month. The social networking bra utilizes a special mechanism hidden under the hook of the bra. When it is unhooked, a signal is sent to a cell phone which in turn notifies a server that generates a tweet. 

A popular Greek TV presenter, Maria Bacodimou, will be wearing the tweeting bra for two weeks. Whenever her bra comes off, a tweet will be sent to her roughly 150 K followers reminding them to perform breast self-exams.  The Tweeting Bra also has it's own account on Twitter.

Unfortunately, the bra only sends Tweets in Greek at this time.

But a girl can dream.

I think I'll get one of these for my wife AND my mistress.

As long as they don't start making men's zippers that tweet, I'm fine with it.

Is this the 21st century version of the chastity belt?

Did you see a new study came out today that men may tell you they look into your eyes, but they wired men up and tracked their eye movement and they ALL look at the boobs first.  Sheesh - didn't need a machine to tell me that!   :silly: :silly:

If it's a man's zipper, it won't be a tweet. It'll be an almost constant bugle call sounding "Charge!".

Just so long as it doesn't play "Taps..."

Sorry, but the impulse is completely hard-wired in our brains. I tried to stop, but I couldn't. Not that I ever wanted to.
