I added TwitterBerry and it seems pretty good...only thing is I wish it had "homepage" that I can start out on with a summary of activites. With Mobile access and a Facebook App, I am already starting to like it! Thanks for the info, Josh and Rick!

Terraminds.com will let you do a search of all tweets on Twitter for a particular word (day, your name) and generates an RSS feed you can subscribe to for that search. MUCH better and more reliable than Twitter's built-in means of doing that (tracking, and @replies). Also, I use Twitteriffic, which shows me tweets @myusername right in my main "timeline", which the Twitter web page (and all its derivatives) do not. Handy. @Jeff - Rick covered it pretty well WRT the RSS feeds, etc. I’d just like to throw one more Twitter tool out there for everyone, that I find essential.

Yep, an RSS feed of all of your contacts is available at the bottom of you main Twitter page, http://twitter.com/home There are a number of solutions available for using Twitter outside of the Web interface. Marshall Kirkpatrick wrote a great round up on the subject for Read/Write Web, http://www.readwriteweb.com/archives/the_rww_guide_to_the_worlds_mo.php. And finally, I don't have a Blackberry, but I do hear about TwitterBerry quite a bit, http://www.orangatame.com/products/twitterberry/ Great questions, Jeff.

However, I still don't get the facination with Twitter. I'd love to have the tweets from those I am following go right to my RSS reader...is that possible? What about tweeting without having to go to twitter.com....are there other ways? Finally...anyone have a good suggestions for Twitter software on my Blackberry? If I can't do it on the BB, fa-get-about-it! Okay, you have convinced me to give Twitter a try (username: JeffTheGreat).
