Cool Twitter Tools
Twitter is an awesome social media tool, terribly addictive yet so simple! There are dozens of Twitter tools around to spice your Twitter life up… I just thought I would share with you some of my fav tools and apps…
- Twitpic – if you are a Twirl user, you’ll be familiar with Twitpic…Twitpic lets you share photos via your Twitter stream. For those of you who got fed up with Twirl’s semi-permanent bugs, you can go to the Twitpic website and share your photos via the web.
- Twitterfeed – Twitterfeed is a cool little app that automatically updates your Twitter Feed with a link to your latest post when you update your blog. I love their their logo!
- Twittershare: Twitter share is an app that lets you share up to 10megs of data such as pictures, music, videos, and other files with friends using Twitter. Not sure how legal this is (I am thinking about music and videos) but I like the concept…
- Twittervision shows you selected Tweets in real time as they are posted on a world map… Big Brother is watching you…
- TwitterFone lets you send messages to Twitter using voice by calling a local number
Have I missed any cool tool out? What are your favourite Twitter apps?

off the top of my head, how about:
tweetdeck – to group those you follow into manageable groups
tweetlater – autorespond to followers and delay posting

I like to think Moblog.net is a good twitter app – it autotwits anything you post, MMS/video/whatever, including Spinvox messages.

Oh yeah, one other trick with moblog.net is that because we send the subject first along with link to the post, you can direct your media at specific twitter users by just putting:
@username1 , @username2 etc in the subject line. When that post gets pinged to twitter it pings whoever you put in the subject.

TweetBeep (Twitter version of Google alerts) is my tool to get all the updates on web ethics and social media via Twitter – in one mail message. Handy – saves me time.

Not sure you’d exactly place that as a Twitter tool, but I’ve been using Twist to check out trends: http://twist.flaptor.com/

If you also use FriendFeed, here’s a new Twitter tool you may find useful: MySocialChatter.com
Simultaneously manage both Twitter and FriendFeed from the same browser window. Frames are adjustable and both sites refresh every 60 seconds.

I’d just like to add another twitter app to the mix. Check out feedalizr (http://www.feedalizr.com), it’s also an Adobe Air app. Has full Twitter client support and great filtering when your Twitter stream gets too noisy.
