1. BubbleTweet.com – One of the most common fears a small business owner would have with committing to market on twitter is the idea of only having 140 characters of creative space available to get somebody to follow you, follow your link or to provide a creative reply to a follower. The Bubbletweet application allows you to share a 30 second video recording as your comment alternative! You record a video and it is displayed as a bubble in your twitter comments. If a user clicks on your bubble, the bubble will play the message. Your user will be able to scroll up and down the screen without missing your message because the bubble will float in the screen as your users scroll up and down the page! This application is owned by KSherman Studios, LLC.

Write a script –even if it is for 30 seconds!
