Twitter iPhone balloon nears Nerdgasm Event Horizon

theconcept
What do you get when you attach an iPhone running custom software to a balloon and float it around a conference room in Bucharest? I don’t know but, these guys did it and got the iPhone to Tweet out random pictures from over the heads of rapt conference goers.

It appears that this was done to promote a Java programming company, which is pretty nice of them. Essentially they programmed the iPhone to take pictures every minute. The results are underwhelming, but the conflation of Twitter, the iPhone, helium, Java, and Romania is like a perfect storm of high-tech geekery. Some shots from on-high after the jump.
