Tweetree – RSS for Twitter

RSS feeds are facing tough competition from the likes of Twitter as the latter is a quicker, simpler and more direct way to share content. However RSS feeds had the upper hand, albeit slightly, as Twitter involves sharing a link to the content and not the content itself. Now, thanks to Tweetree you can get the best of both worlds.

When you log in to Tweetree with your Twitter credentials, you’ll see your normal Twitter stream, but whenever anyone shares a link, Tweetree goes out and grabs the content on that page via its RSS feed and places it right in your stream. Long articles are placed in a frame that can be scrolled through. This is a seamless way to read a ton of content without having to leave your Twitter stream.

Tweetree also updates in real-time, using the Twitter Search method of letting you know when new tweets are available and asks you to click a button to refresh your stream. Another nice feature is that Tweetree actually pulls the background that you set up for Twitter, so it looks similar to how your stream looks on twitter.com. And you can send tweets from it, see your replies,direct messages and even search tweets.
