Other than Twitter itself, there are several Twitter applications that can help make your Twitter experience even better. After researching a few in class, such as HootSuite and TwitPic, the most handy one I came across was the TwitBlock application. Twitter already has many different options of posting, such as links and photos, which is why I don’t think HootSuite or TwitPic are entirely necessary to enjoy Twitter. If you are a serious Twitter user and you have followed many people and worked your way up to have many people following you, TwitBlock is the perfect app to ensure all of your followers and the people you’re following are real people, and not computers, or ‘bots’. TwitBlock simply asks you to sign into your Twitter account, and it quickly scans through all of your followers and tells you who the real users are, and who are the fake ones. It even gives you the option of entering specific Twitter accounts if you are skeptical about a specific user. In my opinion, TwitBlock is the most useful application for a serious Twitter user.
