Rambler sneakers tweet every step you take

The creators of Rambler have designed a pair of shoes that tweet every step you take in them. The shoes are meant to serve as a cheeky commentary on the social media darling and its abundance of vapid updates.
Rambler are a pair of sneakers that use the Twitter platform to literally microblog every step you take. A sensor embedded under the sole detects when the wearer is walking. This information is sent via Bluetooth to a mobile phone that makes the postings on Twitter. When the sensor detects a certain amount of pressure, the word “step” is posted.
