Here’s a neat Twitter client application we discovered this afternoon that allows multiple people to share a corporate Twitter feed. It’s called CoTweet.
Users register to share an account.
When they Tweet using the CoTweet client it inserts a circumflex accent after each Tweet with their initials so that you can spot the author of each Tweet.

We considered using it here at the UN, but opted against it.
The problem is it doesn’t really encourage uses to take ownership of the accounts. It also makes replying to comments, proactively building the following and engaging in conversations tricky.
Steve – neat discovery! However I do think Richard’s got it right about the ownership.
I was with a Biz Dev agency last week and they had experimented with multiple people on a single corporate account. Let’s just say there were “issues”.
Keep up the good work
