Hi list, I'm @ginatrapani, and I'm working on ThinkTank (http:// thinktankapp.com), an install-it-yourself webapp that archives your tweets, friends, followers, and mentions and makes curating/filtering tweet replies easier. (It also makes use of Abraham's TwitterOAuth library, so THANK YOU kind sir.) It started as a weekend project, but I just got funding by Expert Labs, a non-profit that makes tech for helping government use social media more effectively--so now it's my full-time job. In April, the White House will use ThinkTank for their Grand Challenges project. In short, they'll use Twitter and other services + ThinkTank to gather and curate public feedback about what should be our top-priority scientific and technology challenges. Exciting stuff.
ThinkTank's source code is here: http://github.com/ginatrapani/thinktank Here's more about ThinkTank and Expert Labs: http://smarterware.org/5187/thinktank-is-now-at-expert-labs My top API wishlist item is retrieving all the replies to a given tweet. I'm also planning to come to Chirp, and hope to meet you all there.
