Yes, here it goes in their listings:
Last year when we helped RyanAir.com for the Flights to moon:
Tweetscan – search Tweets from anyone or limit to a particular user.
TwitterWho – “batch people search”, find people more efficiently.
TwitDir – a Twitter directory, search for fellow Twitterers.
Quotably – track discussions on Twitter by username.
Tweet from your desktop / browser
Twitterfox – Firefox add-on for Twitter. You get a little icon on your status bar that when clicked lets you read new Tweets and send them. Less obtrusive than other Twitter clients.
Twitbin – Firefox extension that puts a Twitter sidebar in your browser.
Twitterbar – Firefox extension which allows you to post to Twitter directly from your Firefox address bar.
Twhirl and Snitter – desktop clients for Windows and Mac.
Twitterific – Twitter client for Mac from Iconfactory.
gTwitter – Twitter client for Linux, pretty basic, but it’s better than nothing.
Spaz – opensource Twitter client for Mac, Windows and Linux (Hat trick!).
Twitku – read and post to Twitter, Jaiku and Pownce from the same page. There are lots of other services that let you post to multiple microblogging sites e.g. HelloTxt and Ping.fm (private beta), plus some of the desktop clients like Twhirl let you do this too.
Tweeting links
Tweetburner – shorten links and track what happens to them.
SnapTweet – post your latest Flickr pics to Twitter.
Twitxr – share photos on Twixtr and automatically update your Twitter, Facebook and Flickr.
TwitPic – upload your pictures to TwitPic, add your comment and send to Twitter.
Share files / media
Twittershare – cutting in on Pownce’s territory, Twittershare allows you to share files over Twitter (maximum 10MB). Available as a download for Mac and Windows, but there is also a no download web interface option.
Tweetr – Twitter client that lets your send files (up to 10 MB)
Twit+ – share pictures, videos and files over Twitter.
Twiddeo – Twitter with video. “Don’t just tell people what you are doing, show them!”
Twitter Digest – another way to follow your favourite users, select who you want to follow and recieve a daily update via RSS or visit your unique web page.
Twitter Stats – generate graphs showing your Twitter usage patterns.
Visual Twitter – send your camera phone pics to Visual Twitter.
Twitter Buzz – view the most popular Twitter links for the last day.
Twitter Poster – “a visual representation of the degree of influence of the Twitter users”.
Tweetmeme – “put simply it watches what is going on within twitter and picks up anyone posting links to content. We then track how many other mentions of the same content are made (and how influential they are.) and present them in a simple format.”
Twemes – “Twemes.com follows public Twitter.com tweets (messages) that have embedded tags that start with a # character. These are sometimes called hashtags but we like to use the term twemes.”
TweetWhatYouEat – mmmm… set up a Twitter food diary (or do something more interesting).
