The new Twitter Rap song! “Follow U On Twitter” by Twista feat. Cam’ron… Really?

Ok, I just heard this and had to post it: The new Twitter Rap song! “Follow U On Twitter” by Twista feat. Cam’ron. They’re rapping about Twitter DMs, @ replies, avatars, hooking up on Twitter, “Twitter stalking”, blocking users, going through timelines, not being verified and pound keys aka twitter hashtags! Really!

For the course, “I get an updates on your tweets, seven days a week, can’t wait until we speak, but until then I’ll follow you on twitter!” Twista raps, “myspace and Facebook is cool but reading your tweets just be more exciting” … Ok, don’t believe me? Listen to the track below.

5 Silly Twitter Trends You Should Refuse To Tweet About

The internet is being a dummy. Thu Sep 23 22:47:06 via twidroidGwynne Murphy
GwynneMurphy

It’s Friday and you know what that means! #followfriday on Twitter. The goal of #followfriday is to tweet a suggested person to follow and say why should others follow them. I usually don’t participate in #followfriday but for the past few weeks I’ve been writing a #followfriday blog post. Today there’s no #followfriday blog post but more of a rant of five twitter trends I’ve seen on Twitter this week. Maybe I’m getting old or just tired of the same old jokes or what used to be funny or cool on Twitter to do back in 2007 but some of it is just terrible. Regardless it seems to go to Twitter, to blogs, back to twitter and a big waste of time. Heck I’m even waisting time writing this blog post about the trends. Anyway, here are five silly Twitter trends you should refuse to tweet about. Well, I refuse to tweet about.

#1 – Facebook is Down

Ok, unless you’re doing a presentation about Facebook or your Facebook like buttons are causing your site not to load, just be patient, your farm is not lost.

#2 – #newtwitter

Still slowly and randomly expanding rollout of #newtwitter. For the majority of you still waiting, here’s a good read http://t.co/gFjPsU3Thu Sep 23 17:43:06 via webTwitter

Ok, you see the tweet above? So wait for it. You don’t get a badge for having the #newtwitter, it doesn’t mean you’re an influencer because you have the #newtwitter and it doesn’t affect your ROI if you have the #newtwitter.

#3 #angelgate

If you’re not on @plancast you missed a lol today. #angelgateWed Sep 22 23:58:40 via Tweetie for MacWayne Sutton

Ok, so I did post one tweet about #angelgate but for now it seems like a big traffic spike opportunity for Techcrunch and Arringtion shaking up the VC space in the Valley. There may or may not be a lot more to it but until I read about fist flying or official lawsuits, just sit back and read the blog post. Hold off on the tweets.

#4 The rumored Facebook phone

Facebook may be building a cell phone. It’s good except you can only use it to call people you barely remember from high school. #FallonMonoMon Sep 20 23:16:13 via webjimmy fallon

Do we really need to see thousands of tweets about a phone that may or may not even exist? Better yet, won’t be available for months or years if it does exist? A Facebook phone? Please let me know who’s going to ditch their iPhone or Droid or EVO for a Facebook Phone. Really? Is this even news or a joke?

#5 Bishop Eddie Long

Hello everybody! Please hide your kids, hide your son, hide your husbands because bishop Eddie Long is on th loose!!!Fri Sep 24 11:25:07 via Twitter for BlackBerry®Michael Prudencio

This is not a silly thing but a serious thing. I refuse to tweet about it. It’s not even funny! I know everybody has their own opinion and everyone is quick to judge both sides. Remember this, nobody is perfect and be careful what you tweet. I’ve said this over and over again, one day your tweets may land you in big trouble. Read this: Should one joke tweet ruin a man’s life?

Now let’s get back to work.

The official Twitter for iPad app now available, is it the best Twitter app for the iPad? Screenshots

Last night Twitter finally updated their Twitter app for the iPad [iTunes link]. The update makes their current Twitter app universal, meaning its one app that’s optimized for both the iPhone and iPad so users don’t have to download two apps for both platforms. I’ve blogged over the months since the iPad was released about the numerous amounts of Twitter iPad apps but now that Twitter has realsed their app is it the best Twitter app for the iPad? I think it’s too early to tell but by the feedback from the blogospher it sounds that way. Besides why would you pay $9.99 or $4.99 for other Twitter iPad apps when the official app is free and works great?

From iTunes what’s new in Twitter 3.1

Twitter for iPad launches in this version:
Discover what’s happening right now, anywhere in the world with the official Twitter for iPhone app.
Realtime search, Top Tweets, trending topics and maps show whats happening now everywhere and nearby.

What is Twitter for iPad? And how is it different from our iPhone app?
Twitter for iPad brings your Tweets together with web pages, photos, videos and more. Tap on any tweet, and a related content pane will open, displaying any linked content from the tweet, including web pages, profile information, hashtag searches and similar users. Slide panels from side to side and quickly navigate through related content.

There’s also easy ways to quickly peek into a tweet
- Pinch on a tweet to quickly unfold related information and actions
- Use two fingers to drag on tweet and reveal replies

Here are a few screenshots of Twitter for the iPad.

Here are a few notes on the official announcement from Twitter’s blog about new features for Twitter for the iPad:

Panes: Tapping on a Tweet opens a pane to the right. Depending on the content in that Tweet, you’ll see a video or photo, or maybe a news story, or perhaps another Tweet. You can continue tapping on Tweets, opening new panes, and getting new content as long as you’d like to. And, it’s really easy to move between panes by swiping to the right or left.

Media: When you tap a video link or open a web page with an embedded video, you can play that video inline. And, let’s be honest, video is great but sometimes it can take some time to load. The panes in Twitter for iPad let you look through your timeline while a video is loading, and then you can just swipe back to the video when it’s ready to play. You can also pinch on a video to watch it fullscreen.

Gestures: You can pinch on a Tweet to quickly view details about the author and to take actions on a Tweet, such as reply or retweet. Put two fingers together and pull down on a Tweet to peek at the replies, showing the entire conversation leading to that Tweet.

No need to login: You don’t even need to sign up to get started with Twitter for iPad. We’ve selected great Twitter accounts that you can see in various categories, such as Art & Design, Sports, and News. You can also search, view trends, and find breaking news. Sign up at any time to create your own timeline and start tweeting

If you have downloaded Twitter for iPad and other Twitter iPad apps, do you think the official Twitter app is the best Twitter iPad application?
