Pallian charging in twitter appville in warp speed

Monday, August 3rd, 2009

Adarsh Pallian is a force to reckon! He spins out tons of app ideas and executes them at warp speed.

Adarsh built chart.ly that fit so perfectly with Stock reporting so he merged it with Howard Lindzon’s Stocktwits. Next Adarsh spun out IamBIGontwitter.com , a HotORNot like app for twitter.

I spoke to Adarsh @Pallian at the 140conf in NY in June09. His latest app is Justbought.it where he is out to change ecommerce with crowdsourced shopping.

Chattering with Social Entrepreneur Chatterbox at @140conf

Sunday, July 5th, 2009

140conf was an amazing collection of minds, each with a unique voice in all areas of life using twitter for real-time conversations across a diverse geo, beliefs, passions and walks of lives.

There were many twitter app entrepreneurs, many using twitter as their platform, many connecting across the web, desktop and into other twitter apps. What was common was their passion and entrepreneurial energy!

Chatterbox had the best marketing give away with their squealing monkey. Founder Todd Clayton shared his story of how his team bootstrapped with consulting work to build out chatterbox with a passion to help us make sense of twitter data streams for brands.

Chatterbox started with a facebook app called “I have kids” and now has Chatterbox on twitter for brands. Classic example of organically scaling and growing in social app space! I love it!

Seesmic bought the twitter client twhirl and created Seesmic Desktop.

I was fascinated by Seesmic Desktop as they became the first to bring facebook connect integration to the desktop.

Seesmic CTO Johann Romefort talks about their vision to provide a seamless integration across multiple desktops and iphone. The key message I got here is they chose to build upon Twhirl and are focused on listening to users.

What inspires you?
