All a Twitter
Tuesday, May 13th, 2008Twitter is taking flight with some crowds. There are now all kinds of mashups, squatdowns and resources for this great platform. Let’s take a look at a few.
- What IS Twitter?
- View your Twitter heartbeat visually (you are sleeping, right?)
- Crowd Status (organize your twitter peeps into groups)
- Tempo (tracking time with Twitter - now that’s productive)
- TwitterSnooze (for that brother or sister you really love, but just need a break from)
- TwitPic (sharing photos with the help of Google Maps)
- twistori (love, hate, think, believe, feel wish)
- twittervision (like TwitPic on roids)
- (awesome flash visualization of your network)
- snitter (Adobe AIR desktop app)
- Color Wars 2008 (nothing like a friendly competition
- twhirl (another AIR-powered app)
- “quotably” (your conversations, threaderized)
- StrawPoll (answering the important questions, like who’s funnier? Dave Chappelle or Dane Cook?)
- CUNY Graduate School of Journalism (shameless plug)
- There are lots of news organizations using Twitter
- Twitteriffic (for Mac OS X)
- MoodBlast (nifty desktop alerts that fade away - integrates nicely with Twitteriffic)
- Foamee (don’t you owe me a drink?)
- HelloTxt (update Twitter, Facebook, Pownce, MySpace, bebo, Jaiku and more in one fell swoop)
I’m sure I’ve left out a ton of stuff, including how Twitter is used to cover breaking news events. If you have something to add, send me a note: @coolgates and I’ll put it up.
