A special tweet

Want to buy a special something for an online friend? In Japan, online service Giftee allows Twitter users to send small gifts via the social networking site. Givers register on the Giftee site and highlight the Twitter ID of the person they want to buy for. They then choose a gift from among Giftee’s options, enter a message and pay by credit card. A gift tweet is sent to the recipient, who logs on to Twitter to redeem it. Donations can also be made via Giftee to the Red Cross and other charities.
