Twitter--Social Networking Tools

Trends, Services Wednesday, March 11, 2009
I've been using Twitter for about 3 months now and have found a few tools that add value to this social networking capability. One of the most convenient feature is the sharing of your Twitter tweets to your Facebook account. It is handy when I find something that I will refer to later and share with my growing list of friends that are connecting on-line.

There are several other tools that I like to use for tracking key words in tweets. This is one way to make connections with other with similar interests. The hashtag feature of Twitter is supporting the increase of more "groups".

Connect with me at the following free websites:

http://search.twitter.com/ similar to Google search but targeted on tweets
http://www.twitpic.com/ Adding pictures to Twitter
http://twitterfall.com/ Streaming Tweets based on key words you select
http://www.tweetlater.com/ Productivity Tools. One is a really great tool for key word searches with the results sent as a batch report via email to read at your leisure.
