I love Twitter but even when it’s not down it’s got its limitations. Enter the API and a world of developers eager to engage with the active community of Twitter users. Twittershare is the newest truly useful development on top of Twitter; it lets you easily share files of up to 10mb in size.
Mac users can upload and post with a desktop widget, everyone can use the web interface and a cross-platform AIR app is forthcoming.
Twittershare was built by a web design shop called Phoreo, sassy church-going web developers in Indiana. When you’re perusing the list of the most popular Twitter clients, you won’t find others that support file transfers this large. I’ll put this one in my shortlist of handy apps to remember.
There’s some kinks to work out still, but none are show stoppers. The possibilities for further feature development are many but I expect Twittershare to stay simple. Just like Twitter itself – simple is often all you need.
