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!

The more followers you have, the more people will see your messages, and the higher the likelihood of them being ‘re-tweeted’ and passed around.
In addition, if you really want to show off, you can add an icon to your blog or website that shows how many followers you have – probably not advisable if the number is less than ten 
I'm happy to use Increase Sociability.
