Brizzly – what Twitter should be

For heavy Twitter users, it can be frustrating if you don’t use a 3rd party application like Tweetdeck or Seesmic because the web interface lacks features of these applications.  Still, many people seem content with the simple web interface and have no need for feature heavy applications.

Recently I received access to Brizzly, a Twitter web interface still in private beta.  It has a similar layout to the Twitter website but adds the following things that Twitter should have but doesn’t (yet):

- inline display of video and images
- trending topics with context
- groups
- multiple account support
- multiple drafts
- muting
- bolded @ and DM notifications
- refresh link appears when new tweets arrive

So if you like the simplicity of the Twitter website but want a few extra conveniences, it is worth checking out.
