It is very interesting how people give agency to a nonhuman thing and interact with it. I thought it was incredible that there were over 485,000 followers when all it does is simply tweet "Bong".
I really liked the presentation. But I don't really understand how these types of social media pages can have so many followers. It seems to me that something like this would get very repetitive.
I also find it interesting that so many people would follow such static twitter bot. However, it does allow people to experience (on a small scale) what people in London experience. By following the page, their twitter feed will remind them of the time without them needing to know.
