New iPhone App Will Put Your Dog On Twitter

Posted by samzenpus on from the a-dog-of-few-words dept.

angry tapir writes "Japan's Index Corp. plans to launch an iPhone adaptation of the 'Bowlingual' dog emotion translator. The original device, first offered in 2002 by Takara Tomy, coupled a microphone that goes around a dog's neck with a handheld receiver with LCD screen for the owner. The app can also be used to tweet the 'translation' and a picture."
