Tinker will be much more than a Twitter search engine
This afternoon I was teaching a college class about the future of news gathering in a Web 2.0 world. I mentioned that most news services use Twitter as a place for gathering sources and new stories.
Tomorrow Tinker goes live. Essentially the new service will allow users to enter in search terms and more to find news and other events as they are being covered on Twitter.
The uses for Tinker and similar services are endless. Imagine following a concert tour, a natural disaster, or the entire cast of your favorite TV show all in real time.

THR.com is reporting that the Farrely brothers (There’s Something about Mary, Dumb & Dumber) are directing “The Three Stooges,” scheduled for release in 2010.
Casting is rumored to be as thus:
Moe: Benicio del Toro
Larry: Sean Penn
Curley (the fat bald one): Jim Carrey – at least he is in talks to play Curley
Surprisingly, I think that Penn and del Toro can pull it off. Carrey on the other hand is no Curley.
If it were me, I would cast Don Rickles, if he is up for it. Maybe an unknown could be found.
I like Jim Carrey, I just think there is too much Jim Carrey in him to portray Curley.
