    Twitter Logo

    Microblogging, with the wide usage of Twitter, is a hot subject in today’s web.

    Using few words & spending less effort compared to the standard blogging, it becomes possible to share knowledge, feelings, etc. And, it keeps users connected to other users with the simple yet powerful community features.

    While there are very popular microblogging services like Twitter, Tumblr or Plurk, being a rival may not be (or may be) the best idea. However, in order to create something unique, a community for a closed group or a microblog for a single user, there are still huge opportunities.

    Here are 9 open source microblogging applications to create your own:

    StatusNet (PHP)

    StatusNet

    The script is smart in many ways like "changing a form legend of a form also changes the e-mail sent" or no need of using the "back button" to fix the errors.

    It is multilingual, has 20+ ready-to-use language files & can be customized easily via CSS.

    • constants
    • mixins
    • nested Selectors
    • expressions
    • caching and gzipping

    possible.
