Twikini, Twitter Client for WinMo, Updated!
I posted a Quick Look of Twikini, a twitter client for Windows Mobile back in April, and it garnered some interesting comments. The fact is though, Twitter is here to stay and people want ways to access the service on any platform. Stats don’t lie, and these are not the most recent stats that I’ve seen, but the growth has been phenomenal.
1,382% year-over-year growth in February 2009.
Total unique visitors grew from 475,000 in February 2008 to seven million last month.
Twitter is the fastest growing member community site for the month of February.
Twitter is not for everyone, and the aversion to it with some, is as powerful as the addiction to it is for others. Let’s face it though, it’s an instant messaging service, and you can control, who and what you read, your Twitter network can be as large or intimate as you like, as with any other instant messenger.
One of the things though, that people object to is signal versus noise. Signal is said to useful communication from a likewise interested group of people that you follow, and noise is something like the spam you get on your email or blog, from people trying to market, all sorts of things, from Viagra to watches, and the occasional Nigerian prince.
There is a proliferation of marketers, of all persuasions, flocking to Twitter, to see what they can exploit from users, and it creates a model for people to use, actually a lot of the marketing is focused on teaching people how to leverage Twitter to make money. So, if your a software developer, with a Windows Mobile client, like Trinket Software, it might make sense that you would use some of the same methods to make your application go “viral”, that are used on the service that your application services!
Trinket have come up with a maniacally impressive way to promote the release of this latest version of Twikini, which is now a paid software application.

free version of Twikini for poor Bloggers
Version 1.1 of Twikini will cost you Money Now! for now though, your earlier free version will still suffice.
