TweetParty Does Group Messaging for Twitter
If you're still into Twitter (and apparently a lot of you are), TweetParty offers a yet another service based on the Twitter API that you might want to check out.To get started, just sign in with your Twitter user name and password and you're shown the "my groups" page. Enter a name for your group, click the "create" button, and TweetParty will add it to the current page.
Clicking "manage" gets to the good part: a simple drag-and-drop interface to turn Twitter friends into group members. When you're done, click "update party" and you're done-- there's no limit to the number of groups you can set up.
