A cute new service for new Twitter soon-to-be dads: Goingtobeadad.com
I was astounded to see how many people were announcing to the world that they are going to be dads every day.
So I thought - wouldn’t it be nice to have a page on the web somewhere that welcomes all of those people?
So this is a simple one page site that shows you all of the tweets by soon-to-be-dads who tweet “going to be a dad” with a big “Congratulations!” message from the big blue Odadeo dad.
You can get an RSS feed of all of the tweets and I’m also planning on retweeting some of the tweets as “@username is @ goingtobeadad!” but I’ve just got to figure out how to filter out ones that aren’t quite relevant, like “my brother is going to be a dad” and so on.
I guess this is one step even before Tweetlet!
Now… who’s for family planning on Twitter?!
