I had a friend on Twitter that voiced his frustration with having to see many ‘likes’ on Facebook when he doesn’t care about any of them.
I took that as a challenge and built a Kynetx app that would fix that problem.
See a need, fill a need. Ideal use of KRL!
I think the native retweet is great sometimes and other times it just doesn’t fit. I got really sick of doing the copy and paste dance so I built a Kynetx app that adds the “RT” functionality that I want. The RT doesn’t automatically get sent out because often times I need to shorten up because it doesn’t fit within the 140 character limit.

With this Kynetx application developed by Mike Grace you can have the new Twitter interface and still have the retro retweet functionality!
By request MikeGrace has developed a browser extension for Firefox and Chrome using Kynetx that will enable you to view XKCD comics inline on twitter.com. You can get the app and back story on Mike's blog.
HoverMe is a browser extension that lets you quickly see the social profile of your Twitter friends when you hover your mouse over their name. It works with Chrome, Firefox and Internet Explorer but only supports Twitter right now. When you mouse over the name of a person you follow on Twitter, you’ll be able to see what other social networks they belong to and quickly go to their specific pages.
So great to see Hoverme reviewed by MakeUseOf.com. Thank you!
