Twitter Tools
If you haven’t heard of Twitter yet, then you must have been on another planet. Twitter is a cool online service that lets you see what other people are doing right now, and you can also share your own details. Twitter has literally set the blogosphere on fire in very short time.
One of the exciting features about online services are the services created by fans that make them even better. Here are 10 twitter tools, courtesy of Quick Online Tips that will make twitter even better.
- Twitter Badge - Official javascript codes that display badges showing what you are posting on Twitter.
- The Twitter Updater - a wordpress plugin that automatically sends a Twitter status update to your Twitter account when you create, publish, or edit your WordPress post. You can specify the text for the updates, and also have the option to turn the auto update on/off for the different post actions in the admin panel.
- TwitThis is an easy way for people to send Twitter messages about your blog post or website.

I signed up for twitter and can’t figure out why it’s addictive, but I’ve been there 3 times already
