Web App: Twimbler

This item was filed under [ web apps ]

Twimbler is a web app that allows users to submit links via Twitter and then view then view them (and everyone else’s submitted links).

Features:

  • all that is required is a Twitter account, no registration or password needed
  • tweet your favorite links using special commands and they show up in Twimbler

The Good:

Twimbler is a tumblelog which cascades “favorited” links and a short description of them. If you enjoy being awash in seemingly randomly generated links, then Twimbler is for you.

The Not-so-Good:

Frankly, the utility of Twimbler is rather limited. There are no configuration or search features, so viewers are stuck with whatever happens along. For Twimbler to capture the links you want to “share” you have to tweet them using a specific command (example given is #log: http://twimbler.com OMG! I’m trying twimble! ftw.).
