A new version of Kutano has been released and is dedicated to all the Twitter users out there that know how amazing Twitter is as an information source and would like to get the most they can out of it. As observed and previously noted by a number of savvy social media thinkers and writers, one of the issues with high-volume real-time information streams like Twitter is that it results in a “river of news” without context that can lead to “disjointed conversations”. It also means that there are a lot of great people and ideas out there that are lost, “fail to get fed and die”.
We are hoping the most recent release of Kutano is the first step in a new direction to automatically organize this stream of information by bringing important and interesting parts to you at the moment you would want to see them. Specifically, the newest version of Kutano, aside from being a fully-functional Twitter client, will also bring linked-tweets to the web pages they are associated with and allow you to respond to them in a variety of ways directly from Kutano. In this way, Kutano helps guide information from the Twitter stream to all corners of the web, “pooling” relevant tweets directly beside their respective web pages and in real time. So, and keeping with our extended metaphor ;), every web page becomes its own “watering hole” where all sorts of people can easily find and really engage each other around common interests- in this case, the contents of the web page.
So if you’re feeling thirsty for thoughts about topics you are interested in, just browse to the pages you like to visit and dive right in!
