Twitr – a (not so good) user directory

January 11th, 2010 admin

Twitr plays is dangerous with such a close name to Twitter.  But they are a user directory based around hashtags.  You are able to add yourself , utilizing oAuth to give access to your user profile information, and assign three tags that best describe you. After it processes you, a profile page is brought up that draws in your Twitter avatar, bio, latest status and a small graph of follower count.  There is a lowr section for TopURLs, but I did not see any information there. A mobile site is available and the homepage includes links to tags and top users. They need to include some advanced searching to search across tags
