Twitter discovery of the day — Janina Gavankar — aka Ms Dewey — has a Twitter account which is followed by 850+ people.

If you are wondering, her latest updates have been about dashing to buy black tights and shoes before hopping on a plane to Vegas, presumably to be part of a Rickey Martin video. :-)

Chat With My Cyber Twin

MyCyberTwin is a very good idea with very bad execution.

The website allows you to create virtual personalities that can chat for you online. Basically, your MyCyberTwin learns how to chat on your behalf in two ways -

- You choose a personality type and answer a personality questionnaire so that MyCyberTwin learns to imitate your personality. For each personality type, it has pre-defined answers to common questions people might ask it.
- You can also teach MyCyberTwin to be more like you by feeding in three alternative responses to a whole range of common questions people might ask it. You can also feed in FAQs specific to your blog and three alternative answers to these.

After you have given MyCyberTwin a personality and taught it to talk like you, you can embed it on your blog’s ‘About’ page and let your readers use it either as a fun chat tool or as a comprehensive FAQ.

In fact, as I was teaching it, I couldn’t but think of the ultra-cool Ms Dewey herself.
