Changes to the Twitter API open the door to amazing apps - Byron New Media

In April at Twitter's first ever developer conference attendees got a glimpse into the future of Twitter. Since the conference a select group of developers have been working with the annotations functions (which will be rolled out later in the year).

Apps that allow tagging people in photos, keeping a diary via your tweets, harnessing the fashion know how of your Twitter followers to check in whether your outfit is "Drab or Fab".

Twitter may play second fiddle to Facebook. However it's open nature and data portability in combination with a richer API may lay the base for the second coming of Twitter.

Perhaps this time function and value may drive adoption as opposed to celebrity and curosity. No offence to the peeps who poularised the platform.
