Rick,
Thanks for linking to Amplify in your post. Twitter is obviously very exciting, and between following you & using twitterwhere - I have been able to tap into some exciting people & happenings here in PDX. My favorite is finding other people I already know on Twitter - but wouldn’t have thought to look them up or ask them for their ID.

@Matt: Wow! Very cool! So cool, apparently, that I am going to end every sentence in exclamation points!

In all seriousness, that is simply brilliant. I’ve already written up the post on it, and I’m looking forward to discovering a whole bunch of new Portland Twitter types.

Thanks very much for taking the time to build that. I think you’re going to find a number of folks very happy with that app.

Inspired by your post, I went ahead and made a Twitter aggregator that lets you create RSS feeds of Tweets from a specific location. I call it TwitterWhere. It works based off of the public timeline, so if anyone doesn’t show up there (or, if their location isn’t valid), it won’t show up in my app’s feed. I just fired it up so give it a few hours to collect a good set of aggregated data…
