Good morning people – time for the morning roundup of Twitter news on my radar:

  • Interesting Twitter Life Cycle diagram from CogDog – I think it pretty much encompasses most people’s experience of Twitter, at least in a social capacity. Some intersting links from that story too, to others’ examples of their Twitter experience.
  • ɹǝʇʇıʍʇ uı uʍop ǝpısdn ǝʇıɹʍ oʇ ʍoɥ – over at Paciific IT, Robert Sanzalone tells us how to write upside down in Twitter – yes, I know it has no actual USE, and it’s very annoying after a while, but it’s geeky and funny for about 3 seconds and I guarantee most of you will try it ;)

Twiscoop – what’s hot on Twitter right now?

Date: 26th June 2008
No Comments Related Categories: Twitter Apps

A great way to see what’s hot and being talked about on Twitter right now.

Currently hot trends seem to be ‘tornado warning sirens’, ‘coldplay’ and ‘jaerd subway’. (Hey, I don’t try to explain it, I just tell you about it!)

In their own words:

Twitscoop was built to help you stay on top of twitter’s hot topics or discussions.

Through an automated algorithm, twitscoop crawls hundreds of tweets every minute and extracts the words which are mentionned more often than usual. The result is displayed in a Tag Cloud, using the following rule: the hotter, the bigger (no joke here).

TwitterPoster is a visual representation of the influential tweeters. By influential, they mean the people with the most followers.

They say:

TwitterPoster is a mashup created from Twitter, the microblogging service owned by Obvious LCC (Blogger Xanga, Odeo). Inspired by ‘The Million Dollar Homepage’ and the populars tagclouds, the service generates a mosaic with the images of users who have a greater number of followers in Twitter.
