I created the redswingline stapler twitter bot almost two years ago as a way of experimenting with Twitter and its API. I had been watching the movie Office Space a lot and thought it would be fun to create a twitter avatar of the red swingline stapler that was on Milton’s desk.

Anyway, it was off-line for about a year but I recently started it up again.

I hate to admit, but that stapler has more twitter followers than I do…
