Share files up to 10MB with Twittershare

TwittershareWant to share web page links with your friends on Twitter? No problem, just post a link or better yet, shorten it with TinyURL or a similar service so you can share a link without wasting precious characters. But what if you want to share a file that's sitting on your desktop?

That's where Twittershare comes in. Twittershare is basically a no-frills Twitter client that lets you do three things:
  • Upload a smallish file to a server
  • Share a link to that file with your Twitter contacts
  • Send tweets to your contacts
So any time you want to send a document, photo, or song to your Twitter followers, you can just fire up Twittershare and upload your file. There's a size limit of 10MB per file.

Twittershare does not display incoming messages, so it's not a replacement for full-fledged Twitter clients like Twitterific or Twhirl. But if you're looking for a quick way to share files, Twittershare can do that. You can either make your Tweets public or send direct messages.

There's a desktop client available for OS X, and a web client for everyone else. Eventually the team behind Twittershare plans to release a Windows-compatible client based on Adobe AIR.

It doesn't seem logically possible, since if the first one was actually the world's hardest, how could another one come along and share the moniker? It made me doubt the name in the first place. That is, until I tried the game. The mechanics of the game are very simple. You are a small red square, ...
