Twitter’s recent Chirp conference provided new info about the micro-blog’s new advertising model, but it also was a chance for prospective Twitter App makers to show off their wares. One of these apps was Tweet Agora, which has attracted some attention because of the ability to filter responses and mute certain users.
Another app was Twittelator Pad, which allows for content curation where users will be able to easily follow topics of their choice. One popular proposal was CrowdReel, which shows a streaming mosaic of every image uploaded to Twitter.
“I really liked CrowdReel as a consumer experience,” said Twitter product VP Jason Goldman. “I love slicing up the stream by pictures, links.”
Other apps included Project 142, which allows users to search their archives for a particular Tweet, and SonicLiving, which is a user discovery app that searches through Pandora, Last.fm, Blip, Lala and iTunes accounts to find favorite music artists on Twitter. Finally, Tap11 is a serious brand-focused Twitter client that includes both broadcast and analysis tools for the service.
“We want to do more analytics for companies,” said Goldman. “We’re building an API for that, too: mutli-author accounts, analytics around how those perform.”
