21: Advanced Twitter Topics


Explore one or two of the Twitter topics below and blog about them in your post for Thing 21.  Some are better than others; so make wise choices. 

Twitter applications that make it easier to read and update from your desktop or mobile device:
  • Tweetdeck – Free works on Windows and Mac. My current favorite because it allows you to sort into groups. It's definitely worth trying. 
  • Twhirl – Free and works on Windows and Mac. The plus with this one is you can open to multiple Twitter accounts. 
  • Seesmic - Another Twitter desktop app.  
  • Twitterific – for Mac OSX 10.4 or later as well as iPhone and iPod Touch. Free version has ads.
  • OpenBeak – popular Twitter application for Blackberry.
  • Tweetie – An app for the iPhone and iPod Touch. 

Software applications that help make better use of Twitter:
    • Twitpic – share photos on Twitter.  Other photo sharing tools for Twitter:
    • Brizzly – See and share photos, videos and more.
    • Twitterfeed – feed your blog to Twitter. Do you have more to say than the 140 character limit? Then you can set up a Twitterfeed so your blog updates can be shared with your Twitter followers.
    • Twollo – find and follow fellow Twitterers with interests similar to yours.
    • Ping.fm – looking for ways to update all of your web 2.0 apps at once? Try Ping.fm.
