New Twitter App For Journalists

A tech journalist has created a Twitter application designed to help reporters get the most out of the social media tool.

Creator Andrew Miller says he made his JournoTwit program “to suit the fast-paced, nomadic lifestyle of a journalist”.

It enables users to view tweets in columns for various Twitter feeds and to prioritise updates from selected Twitterers.

Miller writes: “JournoTwit is a lot like TweetDeck, but web-based.

“It stores all your settings, and your last read tweet, remotely, allowing you to move from machine to machine to mobile seamlessly, or simultaneously.”

Both desktop and mobile versions of the app are available and Miller notes that an iPhone variant is on its way.
