TopyTalk.com – Twitter talk oriented timeline

Date: 18th May 2010
Comments: 1 Related Categories: Twitter Apps

When Alex R,  the developer of TopyTalk.com aproached us with details of his new app, we asked him to tell you about it in his own words – and here they are!

Topytalk is a Twitter talk-oriented timeline.

Since its beginning Twitter has focused on the one-directional message flow. The idea was to follow someone for news, personal updates and – added later – retweets. But in the world of human interactions it is quite natura to be curious about what others talk about and especially to be interested in the conversations among the people you follow. Twitter provides no facility for that.

How do I search within my Twitter followers?

Comments: 3 Related Categories: Twitter Apps, Twitter News

This is a question I get asked a lot, so I was thrilled to receive a notification by email this weekend that Tweetreports now offers this functionality.

Now, with just a few clicks you can search and follow updates posted by your followers, people you’re following, or both. So watch the video to see how our In-Network (search within) feature works.

Their video (reproduced below) shows you how, and you can visit their website at www.tweetreports.com to find out more about their full product, which offers a whole host of useful features.

Guestblog: Echofon Review by Goldilocks without the bears…

Date: 17th April 2010

Coming late to the iPhone I am just starting to explore what Twitter Apps work best for it.

I started out by downloading my beloved Tweedeck for the iPhone. We did not get on. It's not intuitive to use, in fact I am not sure if I did use it at all for three weeks although I tried too.

Columns wouldn't update and generally a clunky feel that I didnt feel comfortable with.

This saddened me as I love Tweetdeck and it's my app of choice for my PC.

tweetymailA lazy weekend post – I do love it when people email me about their new apps and do all the hard work for me, rather than saying ‘Can you tell everyone about my app’ with no description of justification at all :)

Anil sent us this email about Tweetymail:

I would like to share a Twitter app that I created called tweetymail: http://tweetymail.com

7 New Twitter Apps from Killer Startups

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!

Apparently mine (NikkiPilkington) is worth $507 – to whom, I wonder? ;)

According to TweetValue – I have a long way to go to match Chris Brogan, who is worth over $8000.

The graphic below shows how the number of Tweets Twitturly processes in a day has dropped dramatically since the API changes.
