Twick or Tweet

Twitter is celebrating Halloween by deploying a special feature for users who interface via the Twitter home page and tweet #trick or #treat, TechCrunch reported.

The social-networking site sent a tweet alerting users to the feature, which, when activated, will turn users’ home-page backgrounds ghoulish and change avatars to zombies and ghouls. TechCrunch cautions that the feature only works for users who tweet only #trick or #treat, with nothing else.
