Twitter related news

September 19th, 2008

I was way too tired last night to blog about this.  Right before I passed out I checked my reader and found several news items about Twitter.  There’s a lot of interesting items in this space.  I’ll just link them instead of summarizing.  Much easier.

Gospelr.  Twitter for Christians (via techcrunch)

Summizer: Twitter search made easy on the iPhone (via MobileCrunch)

Twitterkeys (via Digg)

Twitter Redesign (via Mashable!)

Edmondo is a Twitter for Education

My quick take:  Will these Twitter like apps and services stick around or is this more of a fad.  I’ve tried Jaiku, Yammer, and Friendfeed before but I always end up back at Twitter because it already has an established base and I don’t see the benefits of moving to something else.  I wonder what the landscape for these services will be like in 6 months.
