After researching over a thousand Twitter Tools for the Twitter

Tools Book I came across many tools that tried to add value by

presenting a different way to visualize or analyze your tweets, the

people in your network, and the tweets from the people in your

network.

Many tools tried to add value and failed. At least they tried. The

following tools, however, stand out in my mind as exceptional or

entertaining and I recommend you check them out if you want to

analyze and visualize your activity on Twitter.

I hope you enjoy this report and if you do tell your friends that

they can get a copy too by sigining up for our free Twitter Tools

and tips eCourse: http://twittertoolsbook.com/twitter-ecourse/

Cheers,

2. PORTWITURE

Portwiture is definitely one of the more unique visual Twitter apps

that you’ll find. Rather than tag clouds or graphs, Portwiture

allows you to visualize your tweets in photographs.

5. 5K TWITTER BROWSER

5K Twitter Browser is a very cool way to explore the followers of

your followers. The only downside to this app is that there are no

links to the profiles, you need to enter the usernames into Twitter

directly to check people out, and longer usernames cannot be

entirely seen.

Twitter Counter is a way to visualize and track the growth of your

own followers, and even compare your growth to the growth of

other users.

9. TWISTORI

Twistori is an elegant way to view a scrolling stream of tweet

containing the emotive words: I love, I hate, I think, I believe, I

feel, and I wish. This is a pretty interesting way to get a feel for

the pulse of Twitter.

10. TWITTERMAP

TwitterMap is a simple but cool Twitter Tool that will show you

who is tweeting any keyword by pinpointing them on a Google

Map. I did a quick search for my Twitter username @Garin and

could easily see where many of my followers are tweeting me

from, around the world.
