Twitter launches #PoweredByTweets design competition
Twitter has launched an open to all design competition seeking ideas to solve problems using Twitter or to harness the micro blogging service to create something beautiful.
#PoweredbyTweets: The Challenge is inspired by the ingenuity of tweeters in the past who have harnessed the live and public nature of the platform to make real-world objects move, illuminate or fly.
Running for two months the competition will be judged by a panel of industry leaders representing the arts, technology and media with representations of the winning designs set to be built by Pixie Labs for display during the London Design Festival this September.
The winner will also be afforded access to Twitter’s ad inventory to promote their vision on the platform.
It comes hot on the heels of Twitters promotion of UK managing director Bruce Daisley to oversee Europe.
