Why do toilets in restaurants need to be design statements? Isn't comfort enough?

An alarming example from a restaurant visited recently - running water wall
to flush, and a 'piss in the corner' trough. Plus an apparent lack of privacy to
sit and do the business - sure to stop some people from using it.

Another blunder: the shared male & female cubicles in trendy pubs - is that
really what female customers prefer? Were they asked?

Ways to display Twitter posts in a Bar...or at a conference

Nothing like adding a dynamic stream of twitter comments on a particular topic - it could be 'vodka' or 'Sydney' or a hashtag like #sydfb or #wine. Set up a spare screen with an old laptop and you've got instant entertainment!

Services to do this discovered so far include the web-based: Twitterfall, Visible Tweets and Monitter. Applications include Almost.at and TweetBubbles. The last one looks intriguing but appears to be very beta - I couldn't get it to work, or maybe my settings weren't right...

Suggestions welcome - any others of note?
