ed1475 Posted September 25, 2020 Share Posted September 25, 2020 (edited) I recently sent a tweet using my Colecovision video game system and its Expansion Module #3 (ADAM Computer) using a 300 baud modem over a landline. The Level 29 BBS (retrobattlestations.com) can be reached via dialup, telnet or the internet. It also has a gateway to Twitter.com to send tweets.

Indeed, my thoughts exactly. Make me think of that scene in BIG where Tom Hanks’ character keeps repeating “I don’t get it” when new toys are being introduced in the meeting. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
