Remember LookUP, the nifty little search tool for astronomical objects I wrote about some time ago? It was written by Stuart, blogger and astronomer at Jodrell Bank observatory in the UK. Fellow astronomer and Astro-2.0 enthusiast Rob has now written a twitter functionality for the service using the XML output.
So if you send a tweet to @lookupastro with the name of an astronomical object, it will tweet you back the details you need to point your telescope at the target and a link to more information.
Stuart has more here – leave comments or suggestions for LookUP on his blog.
