Creative Media- fresh out of the oven


BakerTweet from POKE on Vimeo. (http://bakertweet.com/)

Poke built a twitter system that allows bakers to twitter what's coming fresh out of their ovens--and communicate with their customers in real time.

How does it work?
In simple terms it's a bakery-proof box that sends messages wirelessly to Twitter. The clever bit is that the baker can update their messages and things they're selling using a simple web interface. Obviously not something that you'd do mid-bake but it's an important feature for future-proofing the device.
