Follow Conversations About Anything, with Monitter

Ok, so here’s a little Web site that could probably get addicting if you got good at it and could figure out what it’s most useful for.

Monitter goes out and collects Twitter “tweets” from around the Twitter-sphere and brings them to you.  You choose 3 topics that interest you, and Monitter brings you a steady stream of all the tweets in some time period that include those terms.  (If you don’t know what Twitter is, please go directly to Wikipedia or Google “Twitter” and read up on it.) You can also target by geographic area, so you only receive tweets from people who live close to you.

What’s the purpose?  I have no idea.  But it’s free, and you can use it find random information about stuff you may be interested in.  And if you figure out a “killer app” for it, let me know.
