Twitters get Twitterfall

Twitterfall has been described as one of the most useful Twitter tools on the market, and by accounts that statement could be right. The great thing about this tool is that it has been developed by two students from the University of York.

The growth in the use of Twitter has highlighted that news stories can filter through much faster, but how do users get their hands on specific information? That is where Twitterfall comes in. Think of it, as a search engine and you would be getting close.

Twitterfall will allow users to search for content by keyword, topic and name; this makes it so much easier for users to find relevant short notes on what they are looking for. Often Twitter users place link to a main article, using Twitter as a huge index.
