As of now, Twitter is mostly used by the techies. But once this thing hits the MySpace crowd, I think it’s going to explode even bigger. People like to quickly notify the world what they’re doing — that’s what Twitter enables you to do.
News is breaking via Twitter, faster than news blogs. But how do you find this news — other than being a friend of some of the top news outfits?
Somehow these twitters need to start being digg’d (“ranked”) and categorized. Well, at least, that’d be nice. I’d love to see a techmeme of twitters.
Also, I could swear there was a search box on Twitter, but I can’t find it now. It’d be nice to setup an RSS feed on a keyword.
Also, categorizing by language.
Also, dating and friending — who’s in my hometown twittering away that shares common interests with me?
Would be nice to reply to these twitter users — a lot of twitterers tell you what they’re researching, or looking to buy, etc. Would be nice to reach-out to them someway.
You know MyBlogLog (one of my favs) — what about Twitter like MyBlogLog, where the avatars appear on your website if that Twitter user was on your website.. and allow them to twitter a brief message about the website (or specific URL — blog post).
What other mashup ideas do you have? My favorite thus far is TwitterVision — talk about mindless addiction.
