I found out that the Twitterrific application is coming to the iPhone. This is gonna change the way you or your friends or your kids communicate forever. Twitter is the product of Iconfactory, which won an Apple Design Award by the way. The Twitter concept is fairly new to me, but I ain’t that savvy. Twitter is the creation of the people from the offices of Obvious. Twitter is a way to transfer information in real time. Like I tend to twitter about the stuff I’m doing. People who “follow” me can receive a news feed about that. Endless usage really. Twitterrific is an app that connects you to twitter. You can post “tweets” and connect to others via phone internet…whatever. I’m not aware of a PC app for this but I know it’s available for Mac users.

Now it has an interface on iPhone too? Triumph or Tragedy right? America and perhaps other parts of the globe, loves to tell people what they’re doing. It’s a fundamental shift I tell ya! Have you noticed that when the smoking ban was initiated a few years back; smart phones and texting skyrocketed? Hey, I’m just sayin’!

This morning I read an article about Twitterrific on Macworld written by Dan Moren. Dan breaks down his thoughts about the pros and cons of this application.

It was an informative article and it seems to me that we are about to witness a major shift in behavior.

Culturemob now has a Twitter, AIM and MSN account for you to send us your feedback. My colleague Brummel wrote a blog about it.
