I'm not sure why this hasn't been mentioned yet, (maybe I missed something?) 
but have you considered running Nathanial Hendler's Grackle68k Twitter client 
on this machine?

If you want to impress America's Young People, running a modern app like 
Twitter on a ~quarter-century old machine might fit the bill.  Particularly if 
running it on your company's regular machines is a no-no. ¬_¬

It could make the machine the focal point of employee breaks 'n stuff.

Of course, it means networking the Plus, and only you know if you're willing to 
put the time and effort (and hardware) into the machine it will take to make 
running a Twitter client possible. :)


Best,

James Fraser

PS: Are there fake uses for a Mac Plus?
