TweetDeck is one of the most used clients for intensive users of Twitter from your desktop, either Windows, Mac or Linux, since it is based on Adobe AIR technology. Already, a client is fairly complete, but allows convenient access to your contacts, but as has been released Version 0.34.1.

In this update, we found several integrations such as Google Buzz or foursquare, but if you do not use the latter, also allow you geolocalizarte TweetDeck as you can see in the video above showing all the new concepts.

On the other hand, have added new shorten URLs to which we already had and upload video directly from a file or live from the webcam to the server TwitVid.

Also we will have global filters in our columns to filter unwanted tweets, in addition to program messages when they want. Very useful utility to send messages at a time when we are unable to do so or simply because we do not trust our memory. Interesting for business Twitter accounts.

Finally, since we publish TweetDeck in services like Wordpress or Tumblr and other services that are compatible with the Twitter API.

It is not uncommon on the street many people who do not have a smartphone in your hands and although the trends are changing, the conversion is slow. Also, if we add to this subject that is becoming increasingly Twitter usuado around the world, what happens to all those users who want to continue their updates via SMS? Because remember that not everyone has a data plan associated with your phone.

That's where comes in the recent purchase has made Twitter a small Seattle start-up called Cloudhopper, which will be in charge of linking the services of carriers around the world along with the microblogging service par excellence.

I also believe that words that have been commented on in the Twitter blog entry are key. The microblogging service has always been based on the SMS to people who do not have the latest phones could also be aware of all activity "tuiteril." So with this Acquisition will try to return to their roots and month indicating that traffic tweets via SMS is nearly one trillion.

The image of a company must be cared for and if you have Twitter account, we must not neglect it, leaving it empty for long periods of time. It is also true that many times you can not be pending or may not update with the tweet coinciding with certain hours.

For all these shortcomings twAitter you have a service to pararlelo from Twitter which enables you to schedule tweets published via RSS to the content of your blog, if you have one, be without you in front of any screen.

Schedule some tweets, to repeat a tweet every "x" time, have a calendar to manage all activity tweeteril are some of the offers you twAitter bonaddes. Even if you are not now, of course you can get performance.

Twitter seems that intends to spread across all existing mobile Operating system with a formal application. A few days ago Twitter launched for BlackBerry, in which case they work side by side with the company after canadieneses smartphones, RIM.

On the other hand, the iPhone platform, Tweetie, a third party application that was quite popular and became the most widely used platform, was acquired by Twitter, making this the official application called Twitter and passing and passing for iPhone , offer it to users completely free of charge.

The issue is that in this second day of the conference Chirp, Twitter has stated that they go after an official application for Google's mobile operating system, Android, although at present no idea of whether to buy any existing aplicaci'ón market, cooperate with a company and though we doubt there is a third possibility, that they believe it. Any bets who will sign for the candidate?

Finally, advertising has come to Twitter so "official" as from yesterday, have begun to show in the form of sponsored ads Tweets that have been paid by companies like Virgin America. After more than three years, this site has been transformed into a platform for real-time information will begin to monetize the content.

After enjoying a site without ads for a long time, it's time to see sponsorships, but has ensured that they are as annoying as possible. After the launch of the marketing of Twitter, some regular users have begun to say in the matter. According to data from Crimson Hexagon, interestingly 42% of users consider advertising as spam / upset and they want off-site, is a very large percentage of users who disagree, and perhaps the group of users have more activity or considered loyal users.

On the other hand 31% of the twitters regard this announcement as an interesting move, but would like to see more before accepting its operation completely. And if Twitter is able to integrate advertising without annoying users, will be a major step in the monetization of the site and to keep users happy at the same time. It is a difficult course.

Only 27% of the population believes that Twitter tweets are sponsored sensible business model, which does not greatly affect the common user activity and therefore have given their approval.

Now it remains to see if the tweets are sent via API-sponsored as well, since many people (myself included) use Twitter from third party applications (clients, either desktop or mobile platforms). While analyzing the possibilities, it is likely that third-party programs are free of advertising, at least at first.

tweetup is a new startup that focuses on marketing and advertising on Twitter. In fact the idea is more complex and goes beyond display ads as there is only a strategy to monetize sites that appear in a sort of timeline. In simple words, tweetup is a search engine for Twitter that integrates AdWords advertising style.

Basically way for advertisers to bid for a spot in the search results. Each time you search for tweets with certain keywords, some messages tweetup sponsored show at the top, as if any message. With the help of an algorithm will determine the relevance of a tweet to establish what appears so high in the results pages, which help maintain the relevance of the information to be displayed in this little form. These ideas were implemented by Google to make lots of money, let's see if it works the same concept applied to Twitter.

Advertisers will have 3 options for bids: impressions, for each new follower is achieved and per click. At first, advertisers bid for print only be priced at $ 0.01 USD / printing; to encourage initial investment tweetup giving $ 100 USD to the first 1000 advertisers in starting a campaign.

This is a good idea, and we may be facing a new business opportunity in Twitter, which already has a user base of several million.

Indeed, this mechanism results in a search engine to sell was implemented by GoTo, idealab a startup of who are the same as those behind the project of tweetup, so no experience in between.

The news bomb today. Twitter has reached an agreement (financial of course) with the developer Loren Brichta and implementation has integrated ecosystem Tweetie its official application form (for iPhone and iPod Touch platform.) In fact, the application name change and will be renamed Twitter For iPhone with the aim to have consistency with the nomenclature of products.

Tweetie is a program available for iPhone and iPod Touch is sold on the App Store for $ 2.99 USD but from now on will be completely free. In the coming weeks is expected that the transition is complete, by which time applications like Twittelator Pro or Echofon will vie for the market users with premium customers.

Perhaps in the near future we see the official application for the IPAD Twitter, which would be logical because the SDK shares almost all the components in the iPhone. Regarding Mac Tweetie has not said anything so will probably continue as a standalone application.

Picotea.com media outlets launched a set of specific tools and free to the media, allowing them to publish their content in text, audio or video, and be commented by the users through microblogging.

Thanks to these features, the print media, radio or television, can share their content within the Picotea.com, gives other users the ability to access and comment on any such content. The contents of these channels may be updated manually or automatically via RSS by the media, thus minimizing their effort when updating.

Within pecks, the channels will have their own entity, giving greater relevance in the portal. In the near future channels will have a premium version that will allow the media to include their own advertising media channel in its pecks.

Tumblr has begun to suggest to their users to use themes of payment from your blogs administration area.

Tumblr is a microblogging platform free most known and used, not to mention the most known and used worldwide, after Twitter. Its ease of use and ease of customization have become famous among fans of quick, short post.

Until now, when acceding to the administration area to customize our Tumblr blog on the tab called "Theme" we suggest the latest free templates uploaded for users to be shared.

But what was my surprise today, when access to the same section, I found that, before displaying the latest list of free templates updated, Tumblr showed me the list and screenshot of the last 13 payment templates.

Among the prices of these templates are for all budgets, ranging from $ 9, about 7 € to 49 $ that would become the change about 37 € but I say that if you register on a free service is for microbloggin pay nothing, if not you'd have a blog with hosting and domain fee, right?

That is as it seems, Tumblr expects to earn money to finance their microblogging platform, though this is the second option since a few days ago and announced they were going to launch payment service for premium users.

Now that Twitter is available not only in English, are doing many positive things for internationalizing the service as possible, given the enormous volume of users from around the world. It would not be surprising that the staff is preparing Twitter developments regarding the ability to view content in one language or another.

A basic feature would be for example, tweets automatically translate to the language preferred by each user, would like to incorporate a translation service perfectly camouflaged in the Twitter interface.In fact since this can be achieved, although it is by no means official. Using some Greasemonkey scripts can make twitts automatically translate, but it is always better to have an inhouse solution (developed by the same developers of Twitter) for reasons of performance, interoperability and efficiency of course.

All this comes in the wake of a screen shot of Mark Hachman, AppScout editor who realized that there is a link in the sidebar to translate Tweets. For now you can only translate from any language into English, and the service is provided by Google.

Although at least this change, I think it is an interesting addition but especially useful, especially for those who follow people of different nationalities. Let's see if more news comes about Twitter and the use of language in the information.

Hackers continue to target users of Twitter with some deceptive practices in order to steal their login details. A new phishing attack (phishing) is underway and there are many users who have been affected by this attack. The contents of DM (direct message) has the phrase "You're on here?" (Are you here?). Reading the rest of the message we are informed that someone spoke to us in a blog. The attack occurs when the user clicks on the URL of the message, which leads to a site where your information is asked to identify themselves Twitter. When the user fills, is stolen the password.

The suggestion is that if someone receives a message with the above features, not even risk it and not click on the link. The thing to do is delete the message and alert other users about this attack. We recommend browsing with care and not delivering the data to any site that asks for it compromises safety.

Here in onlinetechnical we have mentioned several tools developed in the concept of microblogging. Since the birth of Twitter (when it was then considered a service microblogs) to Yammer, a Twitter-like tool, only at corporate level and certain collaboration features. Microsoft is about to enter this field with a new product, which is now at an early stage. OfficeTalk is the name of the product that the Redmond company is developing. In short it is a platform based on micrblogging benefits for employees of an organization can speak freely. Thoughts, ideas, suggestions, notes, etc.. All that content can be published in OfficeTalk.

By bringing the Office into the name brand, are likely to see implementations of the suite of Microsoft. Perhaps the integration is with the web version, which would be great because no matter the operating system users. Being able to share documents easily would be a very useful feature that would add great value to the experience of employees.

For now the applications are very limited OfficeTalk. Need to enter a questionnaire, and based on the responses the staff of Microsoft decides whether to accept the request.

We know you've probably heard from other sources, but we also wanted to put our grain of sand in the celebration of one of the most successful services in recent years, we are certainly talking about Twitter and its 4th anniversary.

Being honest, I have 3 years as a user or "prisoner" of those 140 characters, you can get much valuable information, conversations with people you do not see often know just as many or desahogarte with the first thing that comes to head, but the point is that at first did not give a penny for your success and roundly mistaken.

Who he thought would interest me what happened in "x" minutes or hours, not knowing that later would become a very worthwhile service to share relevant information, although I buy always say in these cases, the owner of your Timeline are you and only you must follow the line that most interests you.

Leaving aside, opinions, we agree with the whole network and Twitosfera and blogosphere to celebrate that exactly 4 years ago, Jack Dorsey creator and current CEO of the company, launched its first Twit or Tweet, as desired. Since then, there have been many who have followed him from people who do not know to stars worldwide.

For everything that has happened and what will come, Muchas Felicidades Twitter!. If you continue to onlinetechnical, click on this link and you'll go to the account of the blog to do a Follow us.

Although this service was available in its English version, Google has wanted to expand it to other domains of your property, so if you're a person who is quite influential in the network with your Twitter messages or conversations you have on Facebook, is likely to leave in search results of others.

Although for all of them, you must have a profile for free and unrestricted appear on the Google search engine. But here is not everything, but against more followers can be provided more relevant results, although the contents, as Dylan Casey, head of the department of real-time search will also be taken into account in the algorithm used.

The facility should be operational from midnight of the same March 19, so we will leave a box with real time results with the talks dealing with issues that interest us.

The most high-profile news of the day was undoubtedly the presentation of a platform called Twitter @ Anywhere, which allows integration of Twitter with third-party sites, forming a continuous workflow that will have fewer interruptions. Anywhere @ The idea is to combine the resources of a site to interact with Twitter, without leaving the site being visited. That's interesting.
For example, a person is searching for Michael Jackson CDs on Amazon, and wants to share the experience with their followers. With the integration of Twitter with Amazon, it would be possible to share information relevant to the user (such as the title of the discs you buy, the approximate price, similar objects, etc.). Without leaving the Amazon site. With one click you could share this information without problems.

Consider another scenario: a person is bidding on an item on eBay. It would be possible to share data object and the current amount of the bid. These examples are very basic and the fly, although there is a real power in the heart of @ Anywhere, which is a great way to integrate a tool as important today as Twitter, with sites that already are a reference anywhere.

Initially, sites have made agreements with the likes of Amazon, eBay, Digg, Bing, Meebo or YouTube. Best of all is that the webmasters do not have to learn to implement an API because it simply does not exist. Just call some scripts to make a site compatible with @ Anywhere, although these details are not yet known very clearly.

To learn more about this platform, we recommend dry account @ Anywhere, where relevant news will be published from time to time. For now it is known that during the conference Chirp, Twitter developer, it will be giving many more details on this topic.

Some time ago I'm finding Twitter user with background on its homepage a picture with the picture or avatar of all your contacts. Researching on doing this I have encountered there is a web application that does this automatically, called Twilk.

To use it and get this beautiful mosaic with our contacts on Twitter, we just have to enter their site, click on "Get Started" and loguearnos our Twitter user name and password and accept the request to allow data Twilk to take our own .

Automatically after this, the application will search the pictures quickly and avatars of contacts with the most Tweetting. After taking the photographs, we can choose some small aspects of the configuration of the mosaic (black & white or color, view columns, view only the contacts that we, the fans or all ...).

If you want spendest 5 $ per month Twilk offers a paid version that will fund a daily update with the avatars of the new fans and we have followed every day and that way can no longer see the logo on the web bottom of our Twitter.

I like the minimalist or as much money to a column with contact details as I have in my Twitter, but say nothing about likes writing, and as I have seen on several accounts, certainly more than one is application you like and you do you get game.

Twitter has been the target of malicious user on many occasions and especially since he has started to become more popular a few months to these dates. Until now, any user could send a message containing a malicious link without detection by Twitter and we protect your content, but from now on Twitter will begin to scan all the links sent by private message and block content that may have dangerous for your computer.
This is undoubtedly a very good news for those who click on links in search of interesting information in which we send our contacts.

Del Harvie, director of Twitter and safety equipment microblogging service, has announced that all the links sent by direct message will be reviewed and processed by Twitter.

This service is just going to make a list of all URLs that are published as direct messages on Twitter before they hit their target and if it is classified as dangerous URL will be blocked and the message will not reach the user.

Yet there is little information about how it will process these messages to detect whether they are malicious, only report that most user would not we give this service account as it will be as "quiet" and less intrusive in our Daily use of Twitter.
