A lot of people I know are twitterholics and I believe the way things are going I might also become one of them. Some of the people have also started to use it as one medium where they can discuss or have a communication around social media because it’s usually the social media guys who you’d see making most noise on Twitter or for that matter friendfeed. In these situations one often feels the need of 140 character limit annoying. I dugg for some twitter based application and services which can bypass the 140 character limit or shorten your messages on twitter.

TinyPaste is TinyURL for text. It allows you to write as much as you can and when you are done, it gives you a tinypaste URL which you can tweet.

While I’ve noted the advanced Twitter search operators in the past, but wanted to spend some quality time looking at them in more detail.

Below is a look at the standard operators, with a focus on uses for some very interesting operators that let you filter searches based on location, attitude, posts with links, dates and more, along with some limitations and cautions for each one. Keep in mind that most of these same search queries work equally well in Twitter search and various other applications, like TweetDeck and Monitter.

Spend some time in the Twitter search refining your results using the operators discussed below, and then take advantage of those advanced queries in your other monitoring applications.

I kept hearing about its rising popularity and just couldn’t understand why “Shannon ate toast and jelly this morning” could be intriguing or newsworthy on any level.

Twitter tools are popping up like weeds lately, so rather than try to be comprehensive, I’m just going to highlight a few of my favorite tools for getting information out of Twitter.

Twitter is beginning testing on a new, integrated search feature with a small, randomly selected group of users.

In a new link in Twitter's main navigation bar, you’ll see the 10 most popular current trends (things being tweeted about the most at the current point in time) and a search box to query on any topic you’d like. Both of those return a list of the most recent tweets about the topic you’re interested in, as well as a link to the profile of the user that tweeted it.
