Overheard anything good lately?

Check out Overheard.it! The most popular word to track on Twitter is "overheard" so this new project by the folks who brought you Snitter is going to be interesting to watch. Here's how it works in their own words:
Overheard.it is a fun site that pulls in all the fun things people overhear on Twitter. The site was thought of, designed and built by the fine folks at Sidebar Creative.
You can interact with Overheard.it a few different ways. If your Twitter updates are unprotected, you can start your update with the word "overheard" and it will show up on the site. Follow @overheard and you can preface your updates with OH or overheard. Finally, you can submit anonymous updates by sending a direct message to .

Just because it got caught off by the looks of it, direct messages would be sent to "overheard" (e.g.: D overheard "some crazy thing you heard")

Thanks for featuring us!

For whatever reason, tracking "overheard" doesn't result in any matches for me.
I've been tracking that keyword for weeks now, but never got anything out of it - other keywords work just fine though.

So I guess I'll have to follow @overheard instead...

great idea since tracking overheard doesnt seem to work for me. All my other tracked words come in fine, just not overheard.

happy to see that tracking "overheard" doesn't work for other people either. I no longer feel so alone. Thanks to Jonathan Snook, now I'll see wat I've been missing.
