There have been remote-controlled cyborg bugs before — but now, possibly for the first time, you can tell a cockroach what to do via Twitter. Commands seem to consist mainly of “turn left” and “turn right,” and it can only accept one command every 30 seconds. Plus it’s only connected for short periods at a time. But still — at last, someone who will pay attention to my tweets, no matter what. [Animal New York]
