Into the Twitter

Today I took the plunge, downloaded Twitterific and decided to give Twitter a go. It took me awhile because some time ago I decided to only engage in a limited number of social networking sites/experimnents. Before Facebook, something had to die (sorry Friendster). Before Twitter something else had to die (sorry LinkedIn).
It took about 10 seconds of use before I wondered: “how annoying could Twitter get?”. Two more seconds of thought: iTunes status updates automatically dumped out through Twitterific to Twitter. An annoying, useless update every 3 to 5 minutes! ‘Course no one would actually do that, it would be so extremely annoying and useless. I was wrong.
Which means I’m simply not thinking maliciously enough. I need to step it up a notch. iTunes and Adium status? iTunes, Adium and Transmit messages? How about going directly to the source and pumping all local Growl notification out through Twitterific? Now we’re talking!
I’ve added it to my “ToDo” list. Lucky for you its near the bottom.

I, personally, think ShiftEdit.com kicks Twitter’s ass
At least you’re messaging *about* something!
ShiftEdit doesn’t also have the big feckin’ ad in the middle of it the way my Twitterific screen currently does. +1 ShiftEdit.
Oh don’t forget to hook all your plants and other organic materials to twitter as well
