The Berlin Twitter Wall
For the upcoming 20-year anniversary of the Fall of the Berlin Wall, The Berlin Twitter Wall is asking people to share their thoughts on the event and post a wish for the future.
Just use the hashtag #fotw on twitter and after a while your message will appear on the twitterwall.
By clicking "stop" and "play", older messages (tweets) will be shown. A click on the cameras up on the wall will show a selection of the domino-artwork that will fall in a symbolic act on November 9th 2009 at the "Fest der Freiheit" (festival of freedom) at the Brandenburg Gate in Berlin.
Berlintwitterwall.com is an initiative of Kulturprojekte Berlin GmbH within the festivities of Berlin’s 20-year anniversary of the Fall of the Wall.
Some of the messages (many are in German)

-- »?Wir wollen eine Mauer bauen, wir brauchen eine Mauer, eine Mauer der Liebe" #fotw«
