Read on Twitter
So, in the light of this morning's Twitter madness I decided to cull connected apps.
I have 90 of the things.

A bit of a mobile device graveyard among these add-ins.

Diaspora! Does anyone else remember Diaspora?
A quick Google search finds @mpesce quoted in a story about users quitting Facebook over privacy fears for this 'privacy aware' service.
In 2010.
Those were social media's optimistic days. :)

Klout! OMG, Klout. Remember when we paid attention to that stuff?
And, yes, Peerindex and SocialRank.

A bit of sadness to see BizSpec there, Business Spectator was a key part of my descent into journalism..
http://Stawberryj.am ? All I can think is I was drunk when I installed this on Tuesday, August 23, 2011.
It was 7.07am though. Then again, I was freelancing in those days.
Twitpic. Made redundant by one of the few Twitter upgrades that added useful features for users.
It's interesting excavating the evolution of social media and my own failing career through the app list -- all the blogging tools from the days we naively thought we could make money out of online publishing.

A whole bunch of erased tweet trackers. I shudder to think at what they could have been harvesting.
The community builders. Back when we actually wanted friends on Twitter. :)
Goodbye ChimeIn, Contaxio, and Twello.

Ecofon. Another useful tool destroyed by Twitter's war on its developer community. Ping @franksting
The newsreaders. I'm a little wistful about these apps. It was a time when we all thought social would create new media revenues.
Goodbye News360, CircaNews, http://Unmissab.ly , NewsBlur, and Summify.

Follower managers. I have no idea why I have so many of these.
TMassUnfollowTool, Qwitter, Follower Filter, and Audit Your Followers.

More dead services: Storify and Delicious. I miss Delicious.
And now I mop up the rest of the apps. A pretty motley crew that won't be missed and what were probably gleefully hoovering up my data. Time for dinner.
One more -- Posterous. Remember how we could send tweets by email?
