Twitter for Neo22s

Hi to everyone.

Today I just created the official twitter for this site Neo22s Twitter.

Since now on the badge on the side bar will point to this account.

Why? I think is better since you will follow only news from neo22s.com and not my Spanish jokes or how is the weather or what’s my cat doing.

I hope many people will follow the site, also I will answer to that twitter of course!

Regards Chema ;)

TweetList.net new site using Open Classifieds

Today is my holyday day, since in Barcelona is te “diada”, big party here. Instead of chill and relax I spent 3 hours modifying OC to create this new site.

What’s TweetList?

TweetList.net is a site where there’s host a classified system. The difference between tweetlist and other sites is that we use Twitter to post your listing in your Twitter account. In this way all your contacts will know about it and also other people could find it easily with the tags.

Simple and easy to use.
