Our most popular Twitter app review in the month of  January was about the InstantTweets application.

InstantTweets is a plugin for Firefox that allows users to tweet what they’re reading instantly.

It lets users tweet webpages and images. Simply enter the text for your tweet and click the little blue bird.

Try it for yourself. Download the app here.

Just as one can be addicted to caffeine, alcohol, or practically anything else, the site called Twitterholic.com suggests that Twitter users can be considered addicts as well.

This Twitter App uses what they refer to as their Twittastic robot which scans through the Twitter timeline in search of new twits and tweets.  The robot performs this action several times per day and compiles the stats it garners to produce a list of Twitterholics.

The list essentially shows the most popular Twiiter users at an given time.  The best part about the app is that participation is essentially mandatory.  If you Twit or Tweet, they will find you, no need to sign up for anything or download a program.  Every user could potentially make the list at some point, but famous people tend to occupy most if not all of the top spots.

A brief look over the Twitterholic top 100 list for today shows many celebrities on the list including Oprah Winfrey, Ryan Seacrest, Demi Moore, Barack Obama and Ellen Degeneres to name a few.  Also on the list are sites like Twitter.com and emurse.com a jobsearch site.

Though it probably is not easy to make the list, some will certainly try.  Gaining a top spot on the list officially makes you a Twitterholic.  Visit the link to check the top Twitterholics any time.

This application cleans up your Twitter account and timeline and prevents spammers from following you.

Tidytweet users can choose to filter their Twitter account from inappropriate language, certain users,  certain words & phrases, new account holders and much more.

This application puts you in the driver’s seat, so you can control what you want to see and what you never want to see on your Twitter account.

Your settings are not set in stone. Tidytweet users can alter their settings, by click on the ‘Manage’ tab. Keep track of your account 24 hours a day. Tidytweet users can also allow or disallow certain tweets, from their friends,  from coming through on their Twitter feed.

Numerous people don’t get involved, because they don’t know where to start. Act.ly gives users a starting point to help get ‘the word’ get out there about a issue or event they believe in.

The application is comprised of 3 ways to get you and your followers involved.

These three techniques–petitions, retweets and events– are easy to use and will help garner more attention to your cause.

Petitions can be signed by any Twitter user. In order to get a user to sign your petition, simply tweet the person by using the ‘@’ symbol. When a user responds to the petition tweet, it counts as a signature. Essentially, the more you tweet your petition, the more signatures and followers you will obtain.

The retweets section allows users to input the petition they want to be re-tweeted. Once you tweet the petition, act.ly keeps track of how many times it  has been re-tweeted. The pictures of act.ly users who have tweeted a post recently are shown on the right column of the site.

The events section allows you to create and promote events across the nation. Events created with act.ly are public and cannot be made private.

Act.ly isn’t just another application that tries to sell you an empty promise. Read the testimonial, which can be found here, from ‘Women Who Tech’.

TwitLonger allows users to tweet more than 140 characters at a time.

If you’re an avid Twitter user, then you know what it’s like to spend minutes adjusting your tweet so it meets the character limit.

Character limits cause problems because so many users try to get  their thoughts out in just 140 characters. As a result, many users tend to leave out important vowels or letters in their tweets.

This great application allows you to write everything you need to say. The first few characters you type, will be visible on your twitter account while the rest will be placed in a link for your followers to click on.

TwitLonger is absolutely 100% free to use and it’s also one of the most convenient applications currently available.

Individuals interested in using TwitLonger, must allow the application to have access to their Twitter account. TwitLonger will not store your information or hijack your account.

Once TwitLonger has access, you will then be able to write and tweet as much as you want.

TwitLonger is a gem for Twitter users who tweet excessively.

The ‘trending topics’ section on Twitter is one of the best ways to keep up with all of the most popular information circulating the web.

Unfortunately, sometimes in the midst of reading a particular tweet about a said topic, the page refreshes itself; therefore bumping the tweet you just read into the abyss.

Luckily, Twitterfall is a new Twitter application that makes keeping up with the latest trending topics easier.

The site lists the most popular and most current trending topics on the left-hand side of its site. With Twitterfall, users can see trending topics flow and collapse just like an actual waterfall would.

Twitterfall allows users to take the driver seat; allowing them to decide which settings best suit their needs.

Users can set the speed of how often the trending topics update, the text size, animation, fall size and theme. There is even an ‘Exclusions’ option for those who wish to exclude certain topics or tweets.

A Twitterfall interface is currently available for Mac OS X only. Windows and Mac users can also download a special widget for their computers. Twitterfall even has an easy-to-use application for iPhone users.

Twitterfall is free, but the site does accept donations.

One of the best features of Twitterfall is that you do not need to be logged into their Twitter account to access it. However, logging into Twitter through Twitterfall does allow you to maneuver through the site and its perks easier.

Once called Twitterfon, Echofon promises a streamlined family of applications so that you can expertly read, respond and communicate via Twitter across multiple platforms or devices. Echofon currently uses two main apps – one for your iPhone and one for Firefox, with a third standalone application for Mac desktops in preview right now.  The idea between Echofon is that it seamlessly ties both your activity on the Firefox in-browser Twitter feed to the one on your phone and vice versa. The way that they do this is by caching the ID of your last read tweet in a “sync server” that all the seperate apps use so that no matter what application you open, you’re always reading something new. It is an easy one-time setup to sync yourself as well.

Currently, the juggernaut of the Echofon system is the iPhone app – it has both a free and a paid-for “pro” version. Both have a robust number of unique things you can do on your phone with Twitter, using the client.  Free version features such things as full-screen Twitpics, video uploading, rich text timeline, and Echofon “pushes.” This means that even for a free user, any time another Echofon user responds to your tweets or directly messages you, you get a notification on your phone like a text message. The pro version of Echofon gives you even more options, including pushes from any Twitter user that responds to or directly messages you. It also allows the user to upload pictures to Flickr, access to Ping.fm, multi-account Twitter use and more.

As far as the other applications go – both the Firefox browser and Mac desktop client, they are to support you at home rather than on-the-go like with the phone. The Firefox application sits neatly in the taskbar of the browser window, making seeing unread tweet counts and popping out a Twitter list to post one of your favorite links to your Tweetfeed very easy.

If you have a lifestyle that needs to stay synced no matter where you are, Echofon might be the Twitter app of choice.

It’s 3:30 in the afternoon and you’ve done absolutely no work. Morever, your computer has crashed because had your Gmail window; Twitter window, Facebook window, IM, MySpace, LinkedIn, and Jabber windows have all been open on your desktop at the same time for the past seven and a half hours. If you want to be more productive tomorrow, you might try Digsby today.  Digsby is the multiprotocol IM client that enables you to manage all of your IM, email, and social networking accounts from a single application. Here are the highlights:

INSTANT MESSAGING
Bring all of your AIM, MSN, Facebook, Yahoo, ICQ, GTalk and Jabber buddies into a single contact list using Digsby. You will also receive pop-up notification when you get a new message and, instead of switching between various IM windows, you can respond simply typing into the pop-up window! A pregnant pause in IM conversation? No worries; the pop-up disappears after being idle for a few seconds.

CHECKING EMAIL

If you have a Gmail, Hotmail, AOL/AIM, POP or IMAP email account (which you most likely do), you can set up your account through Digsby, and begin writing, reading and responding to email directly from your IM window. Get notifications of new emails through message previews, and the capacity to “Mark as Read,” or “Delete” straight from the notification window.

SOCIAL NETWORKING
Maintain your active virtual social life all in one place. Not only can you update your Facebook, Twitter and MySpace statuses, or recommend a connection on LinkedIn, but you can send and receive Tweets and check direct messages at the same time. That’s right; you can interact with your entire social network from within Digsby. Each account is assigned its own icon, so that you can tell them apart, and, in one simple click, you can manage each network the same way you would in a web browser. Moreover, Digsby provides a newsfeed of events in your networks.

At the moment, Digsby is PC-compatible only. No Macs need apply.
