Tweetboard Brings Twitter to You

tweetboardLike it or not, Twitter is rapidly becoming the default way that people are communicating online. Whether or not it will replace email remains to be seen, but for now, Twitter is hot and it’s only getting hotter. That said, it’s not without some flaws, and it looks like a new product is emerging that aims to fix those flaws, and help you bring those “default conversations” to your very own home on the web.

That’s right, Tweetboard wants to first bring the conversation to you, and then it wants to make that conversation much, much easier to follow. According to TechCrunch:

“All the conversations are threaded, and comments appear on Twitter as well, potentially drawing in a larger audience into the specific conversation…One of the difficulties of following a conversation on Twitter itself is that replies to particular threads aren’t threaded together. On Tweetboard, all the discussions are threaded and nested together, similar to what you’d find on FriendFeed or Facebook. Site publishers can choose to set up a Tweetboard using their personal Twitter accounts or create a new one specific to each Tweetboard.”

Apparently this is the first project for a startup called 140ware, and if this is the quality they are putting out, I’m excited to see just what they’ll come up with next. Give it a try, see how you feel about it!
