3rd party apps must make up for Twitter’s incompetence

Posted by: Al In: Business| Technology| Twitter

With Twitter continuing to be so unreliable, I think third party applications such as Twhirl, TweetDeck,  Twitterrific and possibly FriendFeed(?), just to name a few, need to add the option to keep a local copy of messages and your Following and Followers list. TweetDeck is already ahead of the game as it keep messages in a local database. But, with Twitter’s latest screw up, in which they inadvertently removed people from following others, the ability to have a backup, export or offline copy of your Following list is very important.

Who is up for the challenge?
