How To Make Twingr A Killer Startup

  • Twingr allows you to create your own version of Twitter for any group you like, and Twingr will host it.
  • Created by the founders of Killer Startups, the service allows you to send out 140-character messages, follow fellow Twingrs and send direct messages, alll in your.
  • Best feature: A box where you can paste links without taking up any of your allotted characters, which Twitter should integrate.
  • The concept is to have millions of individual Twingr communities.
  • My requests:
  1. Take a page from FriendFeed and let me embed my own Twingr community.
  2. Let me decide how many characters I would like to limit my community to.
  3. Let me add images into my updates and do so by integrating an image reccomendation system that allows me ‘one-click’ add an image to my Twing.
  • If you integrate these features, it would be killer as the KS guys would say.

  • Hi Jason,

    Thank you SO much for the feedback. With your comments and those of the users of the 500+ communities we have on our very first day.

    Your suggestions number 2 and 3 are among the most wanted by all of you out there, so, as we said, the next features and add ons, will depend only on what the Twingrers suggest.

    Thanks again, loved the post.
