Looking for web design information? Check @WordTaps

Here’s a quick post which you may be interested.

After tweeting for a while, I find that web design news are pretty sexy because there are a lot of very nice web designs to appreciate and to learn from.  If you have notice my tweets, a lot of them are related to web design too.  It brought me to my attention some of the best web designers in the world (in my opinion!) and to follow them on twitter!

Introducing WordTaps

I wish to highlight this particular website called WordTaps.com.  It is basically a place to gather all the information about a certain topic (in this case, it’s web design and web development).  Over here, it utilizes the twitter power to share with the world on the latest updates.

It is simply an ingenious idea that this person behind WordTaps has done.  I only know him/her through her twitter account @WordTaps.  As I was heavily retweeting a lot of interesting web design topics, @WordTaps was drawn to my attention as I sat aside to notice the website further.

Any similar competitors?

I can still remember the usual Digg.com where we can digg interesting news (but that’s too much information overload with other irrelevant topics), and Delicious.com where we can bookmark some of the interesting websites around.  So far as I know, WordTaps is the only site that provides similar infrastructure like Digg or Delicious (but they are using twitter and tweetmeme in this case).

Niche websites are always the way to go where they can leverage on what has already been popular on the website.  I am actually not very surprised for WordTaps to be born… But I am also appreciative for this website to be up so that I can leverage on it further!

Beneficial for my twitter followers

I believe WordTaps is a pretty new website, and it is already enjoying good visitorship around.  I was also attracted to it myself as it is also helping me to build even more web related information to my twitter followers.  When I click on “Retweet”, it basically triggers Tweetmeme to assist in the retweeting for WordTaps.

Ok, enough of my thoughts about WordTaps.  Take a look yourself at WordTaps and find out if it suits your taste.
