I make your social media work better for people. Social Interaction Design (SxD) is user-centric approach to social media design, implementation, and strategy that accounts for how different kinds of users engage with social media, and how sites and application design and execution lead to emergent social practices. It applies to user experience design (UX), interaction design (IxD), user interface design (UI), and information architecture (IA). It draws on insights from psychology, sociology, anthropology, communication theory, and media theory. I am available for consulting to design agencies, social media agencies, startups, and social media campaign managers.

Twitter applications and extensions: a list
A list of twitter applications, uses, services and sites. This list is not exhaustive, and I’ll try to keep it updated as new services come on line.
I’ve not had time to annotate the list yet, but i hope to get to that by end of week. I’ll be as specific to social interaction design as I can.
Please comment or tweet additions or requests. I won’t be ranking anything here — I could only offer up my own personal favorites. I’m interested in how these apps slice up the twitterverse, create new social practices or utility, measure rank and activity, and so on. For the moment, I’m as interested in that as I am in which are best of breed or which offer the best user experience from a usability perspective, or social practice perspective.
That said, at some point I would like to gather up social interaction design and experience perspectives from you and offer up some “objective” comparisons and identify best practices, along with how they shape use and social behaviors.
