Twitter index: Tweeps try their hand at trading basketballer Carlos Boozer

Tweeps are listing on Friday the numerous things they would trade American basketball player Carlos Boozer for if they had a chance after his less than fantastic on-court performance during Thursday night’s game.

“If the Bulls had to do it all over again, I think they'd choose setting $80 million on fire over signing Carlos Boozer,” say Twitterers.

Just a few of the items users are willing to trade Boozer for are “a box of saltine crackers and plastic replica of Backpack from Dora the Explorer,” “A piece of gum ....underneath a school desk” and “a download of Nickelback on iTunes.”

Filipino microbloggers are wishing the Teen Edition Season 4 of Pinoy Big Brother a happy birthday via Twitter while Turkish Tweeps are wishing their followers a good Friday with the Turkish phrase “Hayırlı CUMALAR.”

“Amused to hear [British Business Secretary] Vince Cable called Vince Camel by Dimbleby on #R4 this morning,” say microbloggers who were tuned into the BBC Friday morning.
 
Microbloggers tweet that they are watching the TV shows "Inside the NBA” and “In Living Color” and the film “High School Musical 2.”
