TwitPic is very cool website that let you share photos on twitter. A lot of Twitter clients have support for TwitPic built right into them like TweetDeck. We will focus on how to use TwitPic via their web interface. You log into TwitPic using your Twitter username and password. You then upload an image you wish to share with your tworld (twitter world). Assign some tags or keywords for the photos that will help people find this image when searching and where the photo was taken. Also there is an option to have a message with your picture and auto-post the tweet to your account. Then hit the “Post It” button and you are done. It is really that simple, and if you clicked the tweet option, your message with the TwitPic URL is sent to your Twitter account.

There are a couple other cool options with TwitPic. You can view the public timeline, like you can in Twitter and see everyone’s pictures. Also when someone views your photo, they can leave comments and view your past photos. Everything is linked right to your twitter account. TwitPic also has some privacy settings that allow you to use your phone to send in TwitPics, and an option to remove yourself from the public timeline.
