<blockquote><p>A sniglet is a word that should be in the dictionary but isn&#8217;t. Sniglets  	are the brainchild of comedian Rich Hall who, with a little help from his  	friends, wrote a series of books containing sniglets in the mid-eighties.  	While Rich Hall invented the word &#8220;sniglet&#8221; itself, sniglets are actually a  	long-running popular joke in which people make up their own humorous words  	to define things or concepts that have no &#8220;official&#8221; definitions.</p></blockquote>

<p><a href="http://saytweet.com/" target="_blank">SayTweet</a> allows to create a huge Twitter badge using any image you upload:</p>

<li>find a cute image (best if it has a face and mouth to speak);</li>

<p>The tool also allows each badge embed.</p>
<p>The site is searchable by Twitter name and keyword / badge tag.</p>
