I don’t know what it is about Twitter that makes it so addicting, but I can’t seem to stay away from it for very long. At first I thought it was a pretty cool concept, then I thought it was totally useless. Now I think there are ways to make it useful for promotion or collaboration, but I don’t use it for anything other than socializing. It’s been a love/hate thing from the beginning between me and Twitter. If not for some of the tools in this list, I probably wouldn’t use Twitter much, but now I’m hooked.

So if you’re one of the many Twitter junkies, here are some useful tools to make it easier to get your daily fix. Twitter on people!! Twitter on!

Twittervision - Wanna know where that last tweet came from? Better look fast, because Twittervision bounces around the world displaying the latest tweets on a map.

triQQr is a tool to submit tweets to Twitter. It’s still in early beta, so if you don’t like to debug, then you may want to check out some of the other tools I post.

Twadget is a sidebar gadget for Windows Vista. It’s like a widget for Mac, but not nearly as cool. (sorry Windows users - me included)
