For Internet hipsters, it was the end of an era. For Twitter, it was only the beginning: Oprah’s co-hosts immediately spotted the service’s potential for neighbors to alert each other to escaped convicts and sexual predators on the block.</P></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://bits.blogs.nytimes.com/2009/04/21/how-to-hide-your-twitter-habit-from-the-boss/?em"><P>But mainstream Twitter fans face a hurdle: Can you use it at work without being caught? British Web developer Elliott Kember has solved the problem with <A href="http://www.elliottkember.com/spreadtweet.html">Spreadtweet</A>, an easy-to-use Twitter client that looks like a boring Excel spreadsheet. </P></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://bits.blogs.nytimes.com/2009/04/21/how-to-hide-your-twitter-habit-from-the-boss/?em"><div align="center"><img src="http://content6.clipmarks.com/blog_cache/bits.blogs.nytimes.com/img/F799DA65-AD86-4B30-BBE9-07909AAB214E" alt="" /></div></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://bits.blogs.nytimes.com/2009/04/21/how-to-hide-your-twitter-habit-from-the-boss/?em"><P>Not only is it a clever way to dodge the boss, Spreadtweet is actually a clean, efficient way to send and receive tweets. I use it at home, because its text-only, small-font interface fits each tweet onto one fake row of Excel. I can scan dozens of tweets more quickly than I could with more graphics-happy tools like <A href="http://gadgetwise.blogs.nytimes.com/2009/04/01/digsby-puts-your-social-life-in-a-little-box/">Digsby</A> or <A href="http://gadgetwise.blogs.nytimes.com/2009/04/08/tweetdeck-lets-twitter-take-over-your-life/">TweetDeck</A>. <A href="http://gadgetwise.blogs.nytimes.com/2009/04/21/spreadtweet-makes-twitter-look-like-excel/">Read more…</A></P></blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;"> </td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/9809036E-D27F-44B7-9E3B-89CDB1817B29/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content7.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
