Twitterator.org - Create Twitter Friends Lists

Twitter me this, Twitter me that. If you thought the end of third-party Twitter applications was near, think again. The Twitter applications keep coming and coming and there’s seemingly no end in sight. The latest and greatest, is called Twitterator. Twitterator was created as sort of a challenge: find a way to import a list of Twitter names you want to follow. Twitterator is essentially a ‘friend list generator’. If you want to follow a certain set of people, Twitterator makes it easy. Simply sign in to your Twitter then either enter a list of Twitter usernames or enter a URL that points to the list. The latter option lets you share your Twitter lists with others, so they can join in on the fun too. Entering names manually allows you to cut and paste from blogs, websites, or what have you. Give it a try, it’s free.

“Twitterator, then, is a really simple web application that takes a list of twitter usernames and allows you to follow them in one fell swoop. Take a look and see what you think. I have to warn you though. This is a pretty basic CGI script, and it’s not going to be particularly fast. It depends on Twitter.com’s servers being available which can be a bit of a crapshoot.”

Twitterator is a handy little tool that’s so simple, it’s hard to fathom why no one has come up with it before. It’s simple to use and requires little work.

Will Twitterator get lost among the heaps of other Twitter apps out there? Does Twitterator have a business model? Or is it simply for fun?
