Thanks Alex. I work at oneforty, and would be really interested to hear what would be useful for twitter developers. I've written a couple Twitter-based apps, and found it is hard to have them discovered, hear back from users, or even see what else is out there in the space. (And having half of them named Tw-something, doesn't help!)
