With the growing popularity of Twitter, the diversity of applications increases around the popular micro blogging service. wpTweety expands the range of available applications and sees itself as Twitterwall - as virtual bulletin board - for the latest Tweets about WordPress.

wpTweety collects messages about WordPress within Twitter and put them on a website, bundled and free from delay.

Twitterwall for activity around WordPress

wpTweety is simple. Also, the underlying principle and the technology behind it: In certain time intervals, wpTweety checks on the availability of messages with the hash tags #wordpress and #wp. Spam posts get removed, then the cleaned result get cached and be presented in form of a list. New entries expand the list, depending on availability - automatically, without reloading the site.

The proposed solution is a central place to have all tweets about WordPress on one Website. wpTweety highlights the latest entries in color, and allows direct reactions such as retweet and reply to displayed messages.

A pretty useful new Twitter application to tweet the latest news about WordPress or even tweet a job offer for a WordPress project.

What do you think about wpTweety, will you use it in the future as a great resource?
