More twitter fun stuff

by Maddie Grant on May 4, 2008

Just a few random cool things to do with Twitter, should you be bored on this beautiful Sunday (unlikely, I know) – or more likely, in the mood to procrastinate a bit on Monday…

There are many apps that create visualizations of how we are connected to others on Twitter. These are some of my favorites – there’s not a huge amount of point to them, but sometimes, in this world of words, it’s refreshing to see some cool imagery showing our interconnectedness. These visualizations are mostly mine, unless it reverts to a login page when someone else clicks on the link; if you are on Twitter, plug in your own username to see yours!

  • Tweetwheel – click on a name to see the friends we have in common
  • Twitter blocks – click on a block to see what happens!
  • Gridjit - see your Twitter friends’ tweets in a grid, if you prefer that than scrolling.
  • Twittearth – realtime tweets across the globe

And also, back to words…:

Enjoy!
