Twitter mola
Twitter es un nuevo sistema de microblogs que con la intención de contestar a una pregunta: “Qué estás haciendo?”. Los post no pueden exceder los 144 acaracteres, puro texto y se puede leer y escribir desde la web, los programas de mensajería instantánea (messenger, Gtalk, …) y desde el móvil. Esto último es lo más divertido, porque puedes seguir las actualizaciones de tus amigos estés donde esté de una manera sencilla.
Hay muchas aplicaciones, desde el simple blog hasta el uso como plataforma de sms gratuito para las kedadas. Nos es obligatorio nada y se pueden limitar el acceso a tus post.
Os recomiendo unos links: El blog de Enrique Dans, que además es de los que más me gusta seguir en Twitter, la revista Time hizo un artículo bastante clarito hace días, Fumero es un gran evangelizador, y numerosas referencias en Technorati.
Por otro lado tenemos los dos millones de aplicaciones que van apareciendo en paralelo, pongo aquí alguna:
Twitterholic: Ránking de los más seguidos
Twit.tv: de Leo Laporte, uno de los más activos
Twitternanoformats: intentando mejorar Twitter con la web semántica
Smstwi: Por si prefieres gastarte 1,20€ en lugar de un sms a UK

Muy bueno MR.
Pego aquí las noticias que me ha remitido Twitter:

Hello Twitter-ers,
Whew, it’s been crazy since we got back from Texas almost a month
ago. You guys have been twittering like mad and lots of new
folks have signed up to make things even more interesting. We’ve
spent some extra engineering time here and there to make Twitter
more accommodating and we’re happy to do it! Those of you who are
fans of using instant messenger with Twitter will be glad to know
that IM service has returned. Come on by, http://twitter.com.
We Won Some Stuff
While we were in Texas, Twitter won the SxSW Web Award. We were
excited when we went on stage but Jack kept our speech short,
“We’d like to thank you all in 140 characters or less–and we just
did!” After SxSW, Twitter-fever started to spread. This morning,
we were informed that Twitter has been selected as an Official
Honoree in The 11th Annual Webby Awards. Now we feel kinda fancy
but a lot of this attention is because you guys keep Twittering
and inviting friends to Twitter. You rock!
Twitter In The News
The Financial Times ran a front page article about Twitter
followed by a flurry of coverage from The New York Post, TIME
Magazine, Newsweek, The New York Times, MIT Technology Review,
USA Today, and others. The local television news even came by our
office one afternoon. Now my next door neighbors think I’m some
kind of expert (don’t tell them the truth!).
Going Hollywood
My friend Greg directs tv shows and films and he’s got a new
series premiering on FOX this Sunday night called “Drive.” The
show was created by the same guy who made Firefly and stars the
same lead actor, Nathan Fillion. Greg is going to do Twitter-style
director’s commentary during the premiere. Follow along if you
like, just text FOLLOW FOXDRIVE to 40404 or visit the foxdrive
profile page: http://twitter.com/foxdrive
Congratulations Alex and Timoni!
There was a 9 minute delay between Alex twittering,
“Being engaged. Timoni said yes!” and Timoni updating with,
“Wearing my ‘I’m engaged!’ pin.” I didn’t even know engagement
pins were a thing but they must be because Alex, Twitter engineer
extraordinaire and his lovely fiancé Timoni are getting hitched.
Which reminds me, Alex also lovingly updated the Twitter API
documentation recently: http://tinyurl.com/2xqgf9.
One last thing for folks who use the Javascript badge. If you
wouldn’t mind heading back over to http://twitter.com/account/badge
and grabbing the updated code, the time will show up properly in
your badge again. Thanks!
Happy Twittering,
- Biz Stone and the Twitter Team

[…] No tengo muchos conocimientos en el tema pero tenéis muchos sitios donde lo explican muy bien y os dicen básicamente en que consiste. […]
