Twitter API and Startup Ideas

I am @sugree

If you want to know more about me, google my name.

Today topic at #TwittBkk2 is Twitter API and its future.

Twitter API is 100% RESTful.

Stateless API. Seamless authentication.

No OAuth (yet).

Twitter API was designed for developing clients on any devices.

Anyway, it's beyond imagination to develop anything on top of Twitter.

TwitPic.com is a good example.

12seconds.tv is another Twitter clone but focus on 12-second video.

teiten.org is another Twitter clone plus TwitPic with automatic post.

There are more rooms for startups.

#teiten is not perfect yet.

A better version should be TwitPic + teiten instead.

No more separate account and authentication. Just Twitter account.

Post new shot from any clients including #jibjib.

A flash to post new shot on the web.

Automatic post direct link to Twitter.

And then it's time for next better version.

Don't limit your imagination by just image!

Sometimes you can't explain in text or image.

Why don't use your voice?

After that, don't forget to support short video.

The first version with pure static image, you may use TwitPic.

For later versions with voice support, just S3 is enough for direct mp3 recording.

To support video, EC2 may help or use mux.am.

Don't forget to inject AdSense ;)

Let's brainstorm!
