Twitter Top 5 Things We Wish We Could Do

March 12th, 2008 | Cartoon, Odd Ends, social networking

I and several hundred contacts love Twitter. Here my Twitter page. We love it so much in fact, that we really wish there were more things you could do with it.

To be fair, there are already a ton of good Twitter tools out there. Here’s a link to the Twitter wiki. Of all of those, the one folks seem to be using the most is the linkage with iwantsandy.

Yes, things exist, but could there be more? The rest of us think so. Here’s 10 ideas.

1. Order takeout - my favorite choice - this idea is copyright Todd Jordan @2008.

2. Send tweets of support to the troops of your choice - idea from @Dayngr

3. Dictionary lookup - perhaps via @dict? Syntax such as @dict en renegade with the 1st def returned in 140 chars or less?

4. Make phone calls - perhaps through special Twitter application?

5. Distribution of tweets to email or blog via tags or key words - very useful potential here - perhaps tweet to @postit?

What are your ideas? Are you a startup with a great Twitter mashup? Comment, leave me an email - tojosan/gmail, or DM me on Twitter, @tojosan.
