http://www.gamezplay.org - Twirdie is a simple iPhone golf game with a unique twist: players use Twitter to move the ball across the course.
Put simply, Twirdie = Twitter + Golf.
To take a swing, players think of a word and type it into Twirdie. Then Twirdie searches Twitter to find out how many times that word was tweeted in the past 60 seconds. That number is how far the player's ball travels.
For example, Monday morning at 9 am might be the perfect time to use the word "coffee" while "pizza" just might do the trick late night on a Friday. But Twirdie isn't just about the common weekly trends that naturally occur during the days of the week. Twirdie is a live data game so people are playing with data that is changing every second. What happens when Lady Gaga releases an album, or when President Obama addresses the nation?
Twirdie is a simple but addictive game where players learn about, and play with the world around them as it changes in real time. Now you can play with what the world is talking about.
One tweet put it best "Digital heroin for people who like golf and Twitter and want both at the same time."
@KelseeReese2343 A "Birdie" is a golf term. That might be it.
