Buzzable – Twitter Groups Become A Reality

by Stuart Conover on March 1, 2009

Buzzable is the latest in Twitter applications that have hit the market. By market of course I mean the land of free web apps. While still only in beta currently it’s a web application that allows you to create groups in Twitter based around RSS feeds. Due to being in testing stages so you cannot use all of the features that available, however it is already developed enough to allow you to join groups and if you get a beta code to create them as well. It’s very easy to login, join a group, and see exactly how it works!

It uses your Twitter credentials to sign into the account, a practice used by many Twitter applications, to allow you to access these groups. Buzzable’s groups are based around RSS feeds; for specific sites or various topics that can include many feeds. This allows you to build mini-communities in your groups of Twitter friends who are all able to comment on the same topic or sets of topics. These groups allow you to discuss current topics from your feeds and has the option of sending them to Twitter or keeping them private on Buzzable. Being based around RSS they also have features to easily embed your group onto websites if you want.

Buzzable is one of the great applications that are coming out which make use of Twitter and will be a great way to bring up discussions, debates, idle chatter, or just share news!
