TwitterLights

Mar 17, 2009

So, I found a very useful and cool tool today called “TwitterLights,” at http://www.twitterlights.com/

It allows you to highlight the cool part of a web page, and it saves whatever you choose as an entry in your Inbox on the site. You can go there, and compile a blog post from it or you can just Twitter stuff.

Very sweet!

You can also publish what you find to Wiki-Lights, a sister site by the same people.

You have to register, but TwitterLights is free to use and enjoy. It will make tweeting a tad simpler, if you’re someone who likes to present interesting finds to your Twitterverse.

Blogging what you find along your day is made simple, too, which will really come in handy for me. Plus, you can add notes to what you find, like adding a Post-It® Note, right? It’s totally cool.

Take this one to the bank, my friends! It’s a winner!

    I just wanted to say I really found this post useful. TwitterLights sounds like a great idea and something I will definitely use. Thanks for bringing it to my attention. I particularly liked how you gave ideas about how to use it and the Post It Notes point.

    Thanks Pat – I’m going to use this straight away – just wondering if we have to watch copyright issues with it?

    Hi Carl,

    Not sure what you mean. If you quote people, sure. You can’t quote a substantial portion of anything without permission.
