Twitter has announced that it is getting into the hardware business with the introduction of the “Twelfie Stick”. According to a recent blog post from Twitter, the stick will make it easier for people to not only get the very best angle on their selfies – but also Tweet them out directly from the Stick itself.
The Twelfie Stick is a thin and adjustable pole that extends from 10 inches to 3 feet. It is created with a combination of fiber/cyanate-ester resin, NASA calls unobtainium, with a solar charging bicarbonate for renewable battery life. A remote shutter button on the bottom of the pole lets you take and Tweet your selfie (photos and videos) with just a simple click. And you’ll know for sure when your selfie is Tweeted, as the #Twelfie button makes a chirping sound as Tweets go live.
The Twelfie Stick’s spring-loaded cradle is adjustable and easily compatible with all smartphones and cameras. The product will be available for purchase globally during the holiday shopping season for $39.99.
