If you are trying to implement twitter in your business or government social networking efforts, these apps and tools may “expand your horizons” for better use. Second twenty for review:
21. Mr. Tweet: is a personal networking agent who helps expand a network easily by recommending you to relevant followers, helping you discover people relevant to your needs, and improving your Twitter usage via useful statistics. http://mrtweet.net/
22. TwitterBerry: a mobile client for BlackBerry that gives you the power to post updates to Twitter. It works over the data network, so you don’t need to use SMS. http://www.orangatame.com/products/twitterberry/
23. ExecTweets: a cooperative product of Twitter, Federated Media and Microsoft, it features Twitter feeds from “top business execs.” There are a few other cool features here that Twitter should adopt. http://www.exectweets.com/

Check out: Birdhouse – new tool on I-Tunes for i-phone that allows you store draft Twitter messages for editing before sending them out. Just came out Monday and is #4 application.
I’ll take a look at that. Thanks!
Another great list. Thank you.
Think how different life would be if the symbol of Twitter had been a pig or a hippo or something just as intimate! Would you be as keen on all of this if we were “snorting” at each other, rather than “Tweeting?”
I am still experimenting with using twitter @pjrobinson. We are also experimenting with using it for our Federal Consortium for Virtual Worlds Conference http://www.ndu.edu/irmc/fedconsortium.html, April 23-24. (@FCVW09 with hash #FCVW09)
Birdhouse is Really Good, worth the $4. Tweetie ($3) is by far may favorite iPhone twitter App, but TwitterFon (free) is a good start if you are trying out twitter. Qwitter is good in theory, but has been working in fits and starts. I get nothing for a week, then a huge blast…
Adam
Thanks! these are really helpful!
Hey Adam, good twitter list here. I love the BirdhouseApp video, very funny! Check it: http://birdhouseapp.com/ BirdhouseApp is like a note pad for Twitter. You can capture your thoughts & tweet later.
Thanks for sharing!
These look great – thanks !!
I’ve found Tweetgrid – http://tweetgrid.com/ – to be a pretty easy search and respond utility, as well. I don’t think you mentioned that in this or your earlier post.
A lot of people posting and passing jobs around twitter, I’ve noticed.
The Nambu client for Mac OS X is another excellent option: http://www.nambu.com/
Thanks for the expansive list of “tewific” twitter tools and apps. These tools and apps should prove very useful to many!
@Denise Hill- thanks.; @Robert P. Mark- that is freakin’ hilarious, man; @Paulette Robinson- yes, I need to talk with you about what your working on. I think we can help each other :}) ; @David K. Shepherd- all really good comments; @Kathleen Smith- thanks.; @Daniel Hudson- very funny!!! Good tip; @Gordon Barnes- thanks. It’s in “part 3”!; @Joe Lewis- good one. Can’t forget the Mac stuff…no way!
Friendbar recommended – its a Firefox add-on adds ticker-like visual display of tweets on toolbar http://tr.im/j1Nn
Thanks everyone for the kind comments and new suggestions. Look for Part 3 of 3 soon!
@Ronald Barnett That’s a cool one. Noted.
@Susan. Thanks a lot.
Hi Adam,
Please compare startup Freeness & Openness
with Twitter.
Best regards,
Nick Yurchenko
@Nick- I will, thank you.
I don’t know if you covered it, but Uber Twitter is a pretty sweet app for the Blackberry Storm. I think they just had their Beta Launch.
@Andrew Kizmarzick – No, I don’t think I have that one. Thanks, though! I will check it out!
@Andrew Kizmarzick – I have 3 different lists of these Twitter apps, yet compiled all together, (in case you didn’t get to see Parts 1 & 3): Here
