A quick shout out to Killer Startups, who have given us links to yet another 5 Twitter apps:
TwitMessenger

TwitMessenger is another Twitter application that offers quite an interesting service. With this solution you will have the chance to schedule your tweets. In this way you will be allowed to program them so they come out whenever you want, no matter the hour, day, month, or year.

It was a brief email:
File Tweet Brings the much needed File Sharing On Twitter. Sit Back , Specify the file you want to share & the tweet you want to accompany with it. Rest is on Auto-Pilot.
Website Url : www.filetwt.com
Do Give me a review
There’s not much more info on the site, but I did try it out, and it did work.
I can’t see any reason why *I* would want to use Twitter to transfer files, but others might, so this one’s for you
[edited to add]
An email in this morning asking us to have a look at this new service from Foller.me.
We’re always up for finding out about new Twitter apps and uses, so off we go to have a good look around
They tell us:
Foller.me is a new third-party Twitter service that renders instant detailed information about a particular Twitter user’s latest 200 posts. It would generally take hours of scouting and pulling together information from hundreds of posts to scrape up some sort of insight into the user’s topic interests on Twitter. Foller.me does this in a flash, providing 3 tag clouds which represent the user’s key topics on Twitter.
I’ve been a fan of Killer Startups for a while - the premise is that they add 15+ startup sites a day and allow users to vote on them. Unfortunately not as many people as could be are voting, and it seems that there are lots of (ahem) Killer Startups missing out on publicity, so if you could take the time to pop over and have a nose around, I’m sure it would be appreciated!
As this is a blog about Twitter, I’m only going to feature recent Twitter related posts on there, but there are others that are well worth a look too!

Just when you think that there’s nothing else to think of in the Twitterverse, no other use for Twitter and no mad scheme to smile at, along comes an email to let you know that pointless Twitter apps still rule for procrastination and time wasting
Twesents allows you to send virtual presents to your Twitter friends, and they kindly sent us an email asking us to give them ago.
So I (Nikki) duly tripped over to the site to give it a go!
A bit of a lazy post today if I’m honest - we’re snowed under with new clients (yay!) and have hardly any time to update blogs (boo!) so when this dropped into my inbox it seemed perfect to share with you.
Lots of you hate the sample backgrounds that Twitter give you, but don’t yet want to pay out money to have one created for you - so why not try out Wishafriend Custom Twitter Backgrounds?
Here’s what they said in their email to us:
We’re looking to run another series of interviews with people who are using Twitter for Business purposes. It’s very simple, all you have to do is answer a few questions, in as much detail as you like.
Obviously, the more details you give us, the more likely we are to publish your interview first, but we’re not turning anyone away.
Simply copy and paste the questions below into an email and send to nikki@nikkipilkington.com, then follow Nikki on Twitter to be alerted when your interview is published!
Twitter Questions
How long have you been on Twitter?
As one of the partners in Tweetake, we love to see people promoting our service - but I have to say that the cartoon accompanying a post I found today really made me smile:

If you use Twitter for business, then it could be important to you to be able to backup your followers if, for whatever reason, they were lost.
I know I wouldn’t like to fall off the edge of the Twitterverse and have the people following me wondering where I had got to.

Another pointless but funny measure of your Tweets.
They say:
Twitemperature is a gauge telling you whether you’re hot or cold on today’s topics of concern.
Twitemperature ignores meaningless points of measure like number of followers and number of people you are following, and instead focuses on what you’re actually saying, now. We poll your last several hundred tweets and score what you’re saying against what everyone else is saying in current hot conversations on Twitter and elsewhere.

OK, I’m all for starting them young, but in the womb?
http://mashable.com/2008/12/14/baby-twitter/
Excerpt:
Expectant father Corey Menscher wanted to “create a device that would give me a chance to be aware of our baby’s movements”. He created a waistband for his wife which sends a Tweet everytime the baby kicks, naming the project “Kickbee”.
