Crazybob.org - Find Twitter Friends on Twubble

Crazy Bob (officially known as Bob Lee), the well-known Google developer, has recently introduced Twubble, a new web application for Twitter enthusiasts. Twubble helps expand your database of Twitter contacts by suggesting new individuals to follow. The application searches your thirty most updated contacts, and suggests individuals who are not in your database, but have the maximum number of connections with people you know. The result is a thorough list of people to follow on Twitter that you may have otherwise skipped over or just failed to consider. All that is needed to start the search is a Twitter account and your login information.

“Twubble can help expand your Twitter bubble—it searches your friend graph and picks out people who you may like to follow.”

Twubble is an easy way to avoid manually searching for individuals you would be interested in following. The concept may not be revolutionary, but it is a great add-on for anyone that wants to expand their Twitter contacts or just joining the site. If this idea could be applied to other social networking sites and applications (like facebook) it could definitely take off (and cut back on your time spent trolling a site for contacts).

Could this concept be expanded to other social networking platforms?
