Following on from previous posts about using Twitter, I would like to introduce you to some of the plugins for FireFox that I use or have used that I may think you will find useful when using Twitter.

Not only can you install a player that will enable you to control you music that you are listening to, but also, by installing TwittyTunes you can post to your twitter via a handle plugin than adds an icon n the bottom right of your FireFox browser where you can post text and text with a url of the page/site you are currently browsing, also if you do have FoxyTunes installed as well you can post the track that you are currently listening to.

PowerTwitter – Now this is a plugin that I personally like, it will improve the look of the pages at Twitter.com by giving them a helping hand by adding the following to the Twitter web interface:

-search and recent searches
-search scoped to a specific user
-status history peeking on mouseover
-Facebook status updates
-inline YouTube, Flickr, TwitPic, Google Maps, song.ly, and more
-url expansion
-url translation to page titles
-open web update (news feed) mapping
-custom settings
-@mentions
-photo uploading
-link shrinking
-#hashtags

Twitbin – This will add a sidebar on to FireFox showing your conversations, so you can keep on top of what’s going on, it enables you to send messages, receive messages, share links, and more all from your browser, simple to use.

Twitzer – Ever get fed up of only having 140 characters to tweet with? Well with Twitzer you can, you can post your tweets longer than that limited 140 characters, but isn’t only having 140 characters part of the fun ;)

    A solid list. I don’t fully understand how twitzer works but the other plug ins sound pretty useful. And I’m following you on twitter!

  2. PowerTwitter sounds like it adds a lot of great functionality. While I like Twitter, it’s very bare bones so it’s nice to see external services adding the missing functionality.
