IBM patents tweeting, blogging TV remote

tweet-remote.jpgThe day may soon come when you come blog or tweet directly from your TV remote. A patent filed by IBM appears to display a remote that does just this. The network-enabled remote lets users tweet, update Facebook or blog what they're watching with either a pre-installed text message or a customized message. The remote will also be able to attach a screenshot of the show being watched to the message. Finally, the remote would have a display that would show the replies from friends and followers on the social networks. Check out the full patent application here.
