TwitWall is a web app that allows users to create posts longer than 140 characters and have them appear in their Twitter stream with a shortened URL link.

Features:

• allows for creation of updates longer than 140 characters
• supports uploaded images
• supports other embedded content such as widgets, videos and audio mp3 podcasts
• supports source images from existing http:// locations
• inherits design preferences of user’s Twitter page

The Good:

Twitwall is a fantastic application for those who have just a little more to say than is allowed in a standard tweet, and is especially useful for those who wish to attach video clips, audio or images to a post. It is the definition of “longer than a tweet but shorter than a full-blown blog post”. Users see all those they follow and can go to their Twitter page and account settings. Although login with a Twitter password is required, security issues seem to have been adequately addressed.

The Not-so-Good:

TwitWall does have a certain “monetized” flavor to it: there are ads (perish the thought!), and that may be a problem for some. Also, you can only deal with one Twitter account at a time, but hey, that’s a small price to pay for having the ability to add extra content while keeping your followers close, as it were.
