Twitter Apps weekly roundup: a promising week
This past week has seen some high quality twitter apps with disruptive potential. Among 30 new twitter apps I discovered this week, I have chose the best ones as below. Let’s dive right into it.
Twitvid.io
Powered by Fliggo, twitvid.io is not shy about its intention: to be the twitPic of video on twitter. In its founders’ words:”The years have taught us that there is no better way to improve something than to simplify.” and the goal of twitvid.io is “reduce the number of steps between creating video and sharing”.
Chirpio
Chirpio lets you recommend people you follow by voting for them. The votes get aggregated for that user for the overall rating ranking board. As of the writing of this post, top people are @mashable @techcrunch with 90+ votes. A great thing I like about Chirpio is it lets me vote people as I see their tweets. It’s more real time than twibe.com in that sense. I can follow/unfollow people on chirpio as well. Chirpio access twitter profile through Oauth.
TwtbizCard
A brand new product from TwtApps (we had an interview with the founder Felipe), twtbizcard lets you say goodbye to business cards as you know it and send a Twitter Business Card looking like this
. Just launched, it has seen exponential growth. People just love it!
FoodFeed
Developed by a 21 yr old, FoodFeed is a service that helps you share your eating habits with everyone; It asks you to tweet like “@having pizza”, then aggregate all the tweets mentions @having”. Quite smart solution in a vertical with huge potential. And the design is no joke as well.
BoilingPage
BoilingPage is the real-time search engine where you will find the most recently popular web pages; when you search for a topic in Boilingpage, you will find real-time popular webpages as results including links found on twitter.
SocialMention
SocialMention wants it all: it is a social media search platform that aggregates user generated content from across the universe into a single stream of information. It allows you to easily track what people are saying about you, your company, a new product, or any topic across the web’s social media landscape in real-time. Social Mention monitors 80+ social media properties directly including: Twitter, Facebook, FriendFeed, YouTube, Digg, Google etc. Business model wise, it also provides a point-in-time social media search and analysis service, daily social media alerts, and a third-party API.
TataTweet
Developed by @tipJoy, the first twitter payment service, Tatatweet serves as an experimental service project to charging additional service using tipJoy: essentially, Tatatweet is a simple tool to take a group of twitter accounts, and feed them into a single account, for a fee, which is then transacted through TipJoy. Simple concept, exponential growth in its first week.
