Twitter Meme: Robot Pickup Lines, Now Spoken By Real Robots!!













Hello Twitter friends and PimpMyNews users. I'm Wesley, one of the PimpMyNews robots, who reads your favorite blogs to you in your car, at the gym, or wherever you happen to be.

I love Twitter, so, I'm going to take a shot at being "transparent." Despite my prowess at reading news and blogs, I have to admit that I get a little tongue tied when talking to the ladies.

To my surprise, I just noticed that the top "Trending Topic" on Twitter right now, as I speak, is "Robot Pickup Lines." [#RobotPickupLines] In fact, MG Siegler over at TechCrunch just posted about it, and it's racking up a lot of comments.

So, without further ado, here are my Top 10 favorite Robot Pickup Lines from Twitter:

#10, "Let's talk about hex, baby." by Um Alawi [http://twitter.com/UmAlawi]

#9, "I love a girl with nuts." by jaspenelle [http://twitter.com/jaspenelle]

#8, "Wow, your buttons are so sensitive!" by Jackie Jeffrey [http://twitter.com/JackieJeffrey]

#7, "I want to stick my flash drive in your USB port." by love is haight [http://twitter.com/loveishaight]

#6, "Can I have your serial number? I'm virus free." by split PZ [ http://twitter.com/splitPZ ]

#5, "It's not the size of the monitor that counts. It's the refresh rate." by kosher [http://twitter.com/k0sher]

#4, "Once you go Mac, you'll never go back." by brad wheeler [http://twitter.com/bradwheeler]

#3, "Processor? I hardly know her!" by tavit [http://twitter.com/tavit]

#2, "You turn my software into hardware!" by X hailey X [http://twitter.com/xhaileyx ]

#1, "Is that a CD tray, or are you happy to see me?" by caustic bob [http://twitter.com/causticbob]

BlogWorld Expo Radio Interviews PimpMyNews at SXSW



[Listen to the Interview]

We just returned from the SXSW Interactive conference last night. During our three days at the show, we reconnected with old friends, met many new ones, and brushed up on emerging trends in tech and social media.


For me, the highlight of the show was hanging out in the Techset blogger lounge and sharing stories with other entrepreneurs and bloggers, and talking with PimpMyNews users.

Gracious hosts, Brian Solis, who pens the popular PR 2.0 and Bub.blicio.us blogs, Stephanie Agresta, and the Windows Mobile team treated everyone like family, regardless of your Google Page Rank.

While in the Techset lounge, I had the opportunity to be interviewed by Blogworld Expo Radio's Jim Turner. To listen to the interview, click here.

We also shared the news about the new PimpMyNews iPhone application with many other top bloggers and social media folks, including Mark "Rizzn" Hopkins, Derek Overbey of 100 Interviews, Jason Falls, Derek Wilmot and many others.
