Woofer

As Twitter continues its indefatigable march toward digital brevity by limiting us to a scant 140 characters per dispatch, a parody website developer invites us to try something else entirely with their 1,400 character minimum version called Woofer.

The results range from Gettysburg Address.

Woofer carries no affiliation with Twitter in any way—a fact the site goes out of its way to make clear for a myriad of legal reasons. Yet after you've composed your 1,400-character rant and enter your Twitter user name (no password required), the site "borrows" your Twitter profile pic, allowing users to impersonate other Twitter users. But given it's a parody site to begin with, who wouldn't take its output with anything more than a grain of salt?
