So you want to tell the world everything you do? Seems that people are tweeting about all sort of stuff… i am not a massive fan but have had some clients who want there own look and feel.

I have put together a multilayer photoshop document so you can see what i belive is best practice within the twitter environment.
NB – this is for screen res of 1280 X 1024 and above.

For the development Sydney New Year’s Eve web site they wanted the abiliity to be able to add alearts to the site via multiple entry points (web, sms, web phone).

With limited time and no budget also i really didn’t want to build something from scratch (more so why would you?) i took twitter and turned it into an alert system which any one with a mobile phone and acocunt passwords could update.

All i did was repurpose a Twitter widget so that it would do exactly that – see screen shots to the right. The only catch is that the twitter account must be clear unless the alert will appear.  So if an alert was needed to be sent out you would have to log in and delete the alert afterwards.
