Thank you for explaining twittles, Jenine - you're spot on.

In fact, my original renaming was going to be twibble but then I did a google search and discovered that Twibble is a Twitter automation app and Twibbles is a range of babywear from your part of the world, Jenine. Too many trademark issues, hence twittle.

I talk about 'twibbles' in the conclusion section of this article I wrote last month https://medium.com/illumination/is-a-poem-is-a-dribble-is-a-eb449d00c5c5

'If you’re a social media junkie with a fancy for micropoetry, then might I suggest you try a few twibbles (twitter dribbles — yeah, I just made that up!) and see what sort of response you get. Who knows, it might put you on the path to becoming the next influencer — if I don’t beat you to it, that is!'

Yeah, well I ain't no Twitter influencer yet but I have connected with Lucy - yay!!

And while I'm here, Jenine (and Lucy too), I would love it if you had a look at the article I refer to above - it has some more examples of dribbles (in their pre-twittle days).
