It seems like every day there is a new twitter client coming a long. I don't know about you, but I am pretty set in my ways in how I send out tweets. But today that changed a little bit. Earlier today I was turned on to a site called Brizzly. Brizzly is a web app that works with twitter to post and see your tweets. The biggest feature they add is un-shortening URL's. You know what I am talking about. Some one wants to share a site, they shorten it and you have no clue where it actually goes. Well with Brizzly you can see where it goes before you click on it. Best of all it still uses the short URL for those of us that actually use those URL's to monitor clicks to our posts.

Something else though that Brizzly does that I have not seen before, is showing pictures and videos in the timeline. If some one posts using a picture service or a video service, you can actually see the photo or video right there without having to go to another site. Yes, the video plays right in your timeline. You also have the ability to create groups so you can keep better track of your friends. Adding people you follow to these groups is super easy too. Just a couple clicks and they are where you need them to be.

Currently Brizzly is invite only, but you can sign up for an invite code over at http://brizzly.com
