Tweenky
Tweenky is Twitter with a Gmail interface. (Still in closed beta). Oril Yakuel’s blog has the first screenshots of the service. Tweenky will let you do everything you can do in Twhirl except that it also lets you do more “Gmail-like†things including organizing tweets into folders. You can also save custom searches for easy access later.
Twittervision for iPhone
Like the original Twittervision, Twittervision for iPhone gives you a glimpse at the real-time twitters around the world. You can use this app to find people near you and update Twitter with your current location. Brightkite killer? Perhaps. As soon as we all have iPhones.
Checking Back In With Twitxr
Originally, Twitxr was not much more than a Twitter clone for posting pictures, but the site seems to have evolved. Now you can access Twitxr from any mobile device (Windows Mobile, iPhone, Nokia, Motorola have apps, other devices go to m.twitxr.com or email). The app also allows for cross-posting to Facebook, Twitter, flickr, and Picasa. As Ping.fm is to microblogging, Twitxr is to microblogging your pics. Time to give Twitxr another look?
EasyTweets
EasyTweets is a web-based tool that lets you manage and post to multiple Twitter accounts. The service offers several features including automatic URL-shortening, the ability to type more than 140 characters, the ability to have your blog linked to Twitter to auto-post blog entries, and a scheduling feature. You can also use EasyTweets to track replies and see a list of your followers.
Feedtweeter
Feedtweeter is a service that lets you link Twitter, Plurk, and identi.ca to other activities. It lets you multi-post to those services – post a plurk and it will show up in Twitter, too, etc. The service is still in beta, but they say it “should†let you send any RSS items to Twitter, too. Future additions include flickr, YouTube, del.icio.us, send to blog, and send to email. To get an invite code send a tweet to @steffest.
switchAbit
switchAbit is a service that lets you control where you content goes when routing it across multiple social services. This way, you can control content on a post-by-post basis. You post once and your content can go to multiple sites including Blogger, Facebook, flickr, jaiku, Tumblr, WordPress, and, of course, Twitter.

TwitterScript
This Greasemonkey Script lets you send tweets right from Firefox. If you’re not running Firefox 3, it will ask you for your username and password. One problem: doesn’t work with Gmail.
TwitterFone
TwitterFone is a service that lets you post tweets over the phone. To use TwitterFone, you call the number provided, say what you want to “tweet, then hang up. Your tweet will be posted for you in a few minutes after TwitterFone transcribes your message into text.
Update 8/7/08, via TechCrunch: “Today Twitterfone will start converting your Twitter messages to audio, too, giving users a full audio interface to the service. As of today, when you call Twitterfone the service offers to let you record a new message, listen to messages from your friends, and reply to messages publicly or privately. Users can listen to the first ten messages. For now, only English is supported, but Japanese is next up. The service is free and will remain so for the foreseeable future.”
