The Tweets Must Flow,” in which co-founder Biz Stone and Twitter’s gen­eral coun­sel Alex Macgillivray said: “We don’t always agree with the things peo­ple choose to tweet, but we keep the infor­ma­tion flow­ing irre­spec­tive of any view we may have about the content.”

Twit­ter refuses to cen­sor for the UK.

Today twit­ter announced you can link your account to iTunes Ping.
Take that Facebook.

When you click on a Tweet that’s sent via Ping or that con­tains an iTunes link, you’ll see the song or album in Twitter’s details pane, with the abil­ity to lis­ten to song pre­views from iTunes, mak­ing the expe­ri­ence even richer.

Twit­ter + Ping = Dis­cov­er­ing More Music >

Still don’t have access to the new twit­ter.

We use lots of appli­ca­tions to tweet. Tweetie, Twit­terific, Echo­fon, occa­sion­ally Tweet­deck. We move in and out of the apps for dif­fer­ent rea­sons. We try new ones; always test­ing the options.

We do use the web ver­sion when tied to the work­sta­tion. It’s a friendly easy to access envi­ron­ment through the browser and we’re look­ing for­ward to try­ing out the new twit­ter. We’ll get back to you with thoughts then.

If you have a sin­gle twit­ter account and basi­cally tweet for per­sonal inter­est your needs are more mod­est. The deci­sion is really about aes­thet­ics and feel. How you do you want to view your tweets?

Twitter _ Caroline (Vixy)_ earthquake.png

I’ve been a bit obsessed with tech­nol­ogy and mod­ern cul­ture recently. Maybe immersed in it is more accu­rate. This morn­ing I had my first real paper cup and a string com­mu­ni­ca­tion moment in a tech­no­log­i­cal space. Twit­ter is like a shout down a long hall­way. Today I heard this call from far away. earth­quake. It was like lis­ten­ing in the old CB [cit­i­zen band radio] days and catch­ing some­thing of inter­est in the chat­ter. Find­ing the sig­nal through the noise.

I was watch­ing all the tweets come in. Folks talk­ing about their houses shak­ing, call­ing their par­ents, broth­ers, sis­ters. Check­ing in from all geo­graphic loca­tions. It’s an immer­sion into the col­lec­tive. It is really an absence of one­ness. There is a feel­ing of being just a small part of the universe.

Then when the chat­ter had moved on to other sub­jects and the most recent rise of chat­ter called a halt to every­thing — the sys­tem had been over­whelmed — I had the chance to stop, step back and look at the beauty of this inter­face with those known and unknown. The exten­sion of my social sphere. I could look and see the beauty of the mes­sage as designed and dis­played in the flat­ness of my screen. In my social browser, Flock.

It’s been an extra­or­di­nary day.
