Great point. Fun question.

With tongue firmly in cheek, here are two suggestions:
An admission of guilt: tweaculpa
What the heck was I thinking?: twhoops

Seriously though, I too am with Erin: call a spade a spade.

I totally agree… Way too many Twitter abbreviations. However, for hilarity sake.. I think it should be called a “twit” or “twat” because both words sum up what you probably are when an apology is needed!

I agree with Joe, although that will most likely be the case. Maybe it’s time we called a spade a spade and leave it as an apology. There are so many abbreviations with Twitter now and an apology should stand out.

The best I can come up with following Joe’s rules is an apologtweet. (Admittedly, not that great)

As long as it’s not preceeded with a ‘tw,’ I’m happy.

No twapologies, no “I’m tworry,” nothing like that.
