Filesharing comes to Twitter

May 27th, 2008   News  

Twitter has apparently taken over the world. You can’t use the web without seeing a reference to Twitter, and now it looks like filesharing functionality has been added to Twitter. TweetCube is the name of the filesharing service.

So how does it work? Well, it basically gives filesharing functionality to Twitter accounts. You log in to your Twitter account through the TweetCube website and then you can upload your files for filesharing. Next thing you know, the uploaded files show up in your Twitter stream. Pretty cool, right?

The service is free to use and you can use the filesharing website to share files up to 10MB in size. It is perhaps more of a gimmick than anything, but it’s the sort of functionality that Twitter almost certainly needs if it wants to evolve. Simplicity is great, but a filesharing function added to Twitter would make it even better.
