There is this little social tool we all know and love called Twitter. Call it a microblog, call it a communication tool, call it oxygen, hey call it what you want. Everyone is tweeting. From the average Joe to a mythical bird on Mars, Twitter is a way of life for most. If you haven't jumped on the Twitter band wagon please visit a friend of mine who has an awesome Twitter 101 to get anyone started. Twitter is all about the development of social media. Many of the ideas that Twitter rolled into their production site came from the users that love it. The developers at Twitter have created an API just to ignite that creativity to the next level. Here are some examples of Twitter API use and just how amazing the power of open creativity is: Twitter Peeps: Who are these people that tweet? Twitterholic.com -- Find the people who make Twitter, Twitter Twubble -- Find out who they follow TwitterLocal -- Find someone near you Twitter Hotness: Now that I'm on Twitter, what do I read?
