I did a quick search on here for posts regarding Twisney, and didn't see much. As a software developer, and admitted Twitter nut, this site just seemed like the perfect marriage of geeky-techno things and my love for Disney.
If you have the chance, look the site over: http://www.twisney.com/
It's a link up of live maps, twitter, and some other web-ish things. Recently they added live wait times. If you're in the parks and have a smart phone type device (probably regular cell phone will get it done via text message), you can upload wait times for attractions as you walk past them or ride them. And, if others in the park are doing the same, you can check their mobile site for recent times that have been sent in.
To be clear, I'm NOT associated with this site in any way. Not that it matters, there is no registration fee, you don't even register, and there's no ad revenue from the site. So, bringing it up here is just an attempt to drive more traffic to it. It's one of those sites that will benefit from more traffic, especially for the wait times feature.
WARNING: It can be a time sink, especially if you haven't been to WDW in a few months and are dying to go back. People posting updates all day long can keep you tuned in to see where they'll go next.
Personally, I'm looking forward to my trip in Oct so I can give the mobile site a try, and see if that wait time thing works out.
