Follow "mitlindydj" on Twitter for song lists at MIT swing dance

Ever wanted to know what song the DJ just played? Follow
mitlindydj on Twitter.

For the MIT Lindy Hop Society swing dance this Wednesday,
we'll be experimenting with a new technology: live tweeting
the artist/song titles over Twitter from the account
mitlindydj as the songs play. Set your mobile device to
follow mitlindydj , or follow along on the web at
http://twitter.com/mitlindyDJ

Note that there will probably be a tweet every 3 or 4
minutes, so make sure you have an adequate text-messaging
plan.

I'll be typing in the tweets throughout the evening; feel
free to give feedback about the service! The DJs this week
are Foxman James and Ted Simpson.
