So I walk in to the office, that I occasionally share, and am greeted with this question;  ”Do you think I have enough friends, that if they all help, we can can Twitter Ulysses between now and Blooms Day?”

Ulysses in 6 weeks?

Not if you want to keep them as friends.

I didn’t bother to ask why. Sometimes it’s better that way. But I did offer to Tweet Ulysses for her. Not myself of course, but a combination of Guttenburg Project, PHP, MySQL, and the Twitter API. Of course by the time I got around to it, we were short on time, so it’s one tweet, every 2 minutes, 24 x 7.
My apologies to anyone who would follow. It’s too many tweets. It’s not meant to be followed. At least not now.

You will find, come June 16, the entire text of Ulysses by James Joyce. Unlike others before us – yes it has been done – we are tweeting lines from end to start. So once it’s all up there you can sit in a cafe somewhere with your cigs and iPhone and read Joyce.

What should we do next? Finigans Wake?
