TwitBacks 2009 Year In Review

Ever heard of a little thing called “Twitter”? While our Go Smart Solutions professional services keep us plenty busy, we also like to take on fun side projects every now and again, which is how TwitBacks was born. While we initially launched TwitBacks near the end of 2008, it took on a life of its own in 2009, spreading across the Twitterverse and growing every day in popularity. Since it has launched, there have been 166,700 backgrounds created by over 152,000 members.

TwitBacks was the first to offer branded, customizable backgrounds for your Twitter profile. Using the service, anyone can create a unique Twitter background with their contact info, photo, company logo and more — for free!

TwitBacks offers tons of professionally designed backgrounds and also allows you to upload a background of your own.

We want to thank all the Twitter members who have used and supported TwitBacks in 2009.

TwitBacks is a Flying Twitterling

Being a part of the lead story on BusinessWeek.com is not something that we take lightly, in fact, we’re thrilled! The thanks we continually get from our users has been such an encouragement, and with recognition from such an established news source, we are even more grateful. In the story, titled “The Fragile Flight of the Twitterlings” , BusinessWeek.com explores 18 different Twitter applications that rely on Twitter’s success to be the wind in their sails. TwitBacks.com is one of them.

Examining the advantages and challenges of being a business who’s rise or fall depends largely on the success or failure of another entity, this article is an interesting read with varying perspectives. A slideshow entitled “Twitter’s Growing Ecosystem” accompanies the article, highlighting the business plan of each Twitter application. The feature recognizes the value TwitBacks offers, saying,

“Instead of filling this space [Twitter profile background] with a pretty picture, many people choose to turn it into a personal business card, displaying information about where they work and where else they can be found on the Web.”

While TwitBacks.com offers free branded backgrounds (and always will), the BusinessWeek.com feature also mentions our Promote Profile service, which offers online exposure for your services and Twitter profile.

We are happy to be included in such good company, as the story covers a range of other high-quality applications and companies. Check it out, it’s a great read.
