Sharing Photos On Twitter
Monday, November 9, 2009 22:17Sharing photos of your trophy buck on Twitter is easy and will not take you much time. Two services that we really like to use is Twitpic.com and Tweetphoto.com. Both services are free and only require you have a previously created Twitter profile.
You can post pictures to TwitPic from your phone, their API, or through the site itself. There are also popular twitter clients that have built-in support for TwitPic. Twitpic could be used independently of Twitter, in a way similar to Flickr. However several characteristics make this site a companion for Twitter. Twitpic usernames and passwords are the same as the ones in Twitter. Comments to photographs are sent as a reply tweet. Twitpic URLs are already short, making it unnecessary to use URL shortening. Anyone with a Twitter account can post pictures to the site. This has the disadvantage of anyone being able to post pornographic, obscene or objectionable material. Although the site administrator attempts to keep the site family friendly by removing such pictures, the sheer number of uses makes this very difficult.
TweetPhoto is a photo sharing platform for the real-time web. This free service allows you to share photos on Twitter, Facebook and through your favorite desktop and mobile clients. The service focuses on creating the best possible user-experience among the applications developed around the Twitter Application Programming Interface (API).
This personalized experience is the evolution and convergence of real-time mobile and web-based social photo sharing. It allows Twitter users to quickly and easily publish and consume photos.
