Is TwitWall Another Blog Platform?
TwitWall is a standalone social application for Twitter. If you have a Twitter account you are automatically set up with a TwitWall even though you may never use it. I wonder how many Twitterers do not even know they have a TwitWall. I just discovered mine a couple of weeks ago.
The point behind TwitWall is that you can say more than the 140 character limit that Twitter enforces. Good idea, but why not just write it on your blog? Then you use can use Twitter Tools to post the link to Twitter from your blog?
There is a practical reason for using TwitWall. It does appear to be just another blogging platform, but I don’t write to mine every day. Just when I have something unique to say that I really only care that my Twitter audience reads. TwitWall does have some advantages though. No. 1, when you write to TwitWall, your blog post automatically Twitters instantly. Just like Twitter Tools. But it’s also social and accessible to every other Twitterer with a TwitWall. Therein is your advantage.
If you have a strong Twitter following, you can use TwitWall to go into greater depth about some of your tweets. But don’t do it too often. Another reason to use TwitWall is you can target specific types of Twitterers who can find you through TwitWall and follow you based on your TwitWall postings. It’s just another way to reach the right people for your niche. Just don’t overdo it.

With OAuth already in public beta, twitwall type of services are soon going to be out of action
I personally like using excla.im with gtalk to post twitter status.
