TwitCap Logo TwitCaps is one of the newest applications based on Twitter. Twitter as you know is a place to share your latest updates and people follow you to keep up with what you are up to.

Well, twitter has become much more than that, at least to some of us and services like TwitCaps compliment the core functionality of Twitter.

TwitCaps visually shows you what’s happening on Twitter. It captures all the images that are being currently shared on Twitter and shows you real time.

These images can then be re-tweeted, shared, e-mailed, etc.. As twitter is a place for annoying people as well, TwitCaps lets you filter out images/messages from the selected Twitter users. If you don’t like images from a particular user, just add the user ID to the filter, it can’t get any simpler.

If you are not sure why are you at TwitCap or what exactly are you looking for? TwitCaps lets you search their database and tracks the trends on Twitter as well.

This is probably one of the best ways of tracking the hottest trends and get visuals from the world over.

For example a click on #IranElection quickly portrays an undeniable picture of misery and pain Iranians are going through demanding freedom!

The site offers other smart features like “Auto Refresh” which auto refreshes to show you the latest images from twitter, there is no way to set the refresh rate though!

Another feature where a user can see the “Most Popular” images which means these are the images that have been retweeted mostly.

Or if you’d like to view images only from your friends, simply select the option “Friends Cap” or simply perform a search with the Twitter ID e.g. from:<Twitter ID>
