Yes, John Craddock (@Johnbaldy) pointed me towards Poetweet, a lovely little site which takes your tweets and attempt to turn them into proper sonnets etc.
Here's two poems worth of what it does to mine. I like them - they would only need a few tweaks to be confusingly pleasing.
Douglas Adams once wrote about a spreadsheet program which converted financial figures into musical notation and played your accounts as tunes. And Poetweet is something of the same - it provides an alternative representation of what we actually tweet about - our preoccupations, our stylistic quirks, our calls to action.
And, since we can't think in straight lines all the time, isn't that interesting?
