Roundup : ReaderBurner, Strawpoll Twitter, Twittermeter, Twimblr, Qik

I’ve have so many tools to catch up on it’s silly. I’ll slowly get through them even if they are 6months old, so don’t feel this is breaking news.

ReaderBurner - similar to the del.icio.us home page…displaying the latest links, and hot links from Google Reader Shared Items. Google itself should really be capitalising on aggregating this information into a hot news site, similar to Rojo. [via RWW]

Strawpoll Twitter - follow strawpoll, receive the question of the day, and answer as such “@strawpoll” your vote your reason.”

Twittermeter - just like Google Trends but for the Twittersphere, see also Twitterment.

Twimblr - similar to running your Twitter feed through Tumblr. What you do is use the hash tag #log before your tweet and it will appear in your Twimblr micro-blog. This is a more individual centric blog like version of hashtags. What a great idea to be able to send various tweets to your own micro-blog, this is really no fuss at all. Many of us have tweets about a regular topic that we’d wish could stand out in it’s own stream, what better than a micro-blog, and you don’t have to alter any of your habits, you can post to it from Twitter as usual.

Qik - stream from your mobile phone, also see Pocketcaster, blogTV mobile, FlixWagon, and LiveCastr.
