I follow a lot of people on Twitter. Other than the random update that amuses me, I really like to check the links to the sites and blogs they recommend. Twitturly let me identify just those Twitter updates with links and also shows how many times that link has been copied.

Twitturly is a service for tracking what URLs people are talking about as they talk about them on Twitter.The easiest way to understand how Twitturly works is, if you are familiar with digg, then you already know essentially what we do. If you don’t know what digg is, then here is a quick run-down: On Digg, and Twitturly, people “vote” for a URL. The more votes it gets the better it ranks. If it does well enough, it gets promoted to the home page and as the votes increase it gets displayed higher up the home page. Twitturly is different than Digg because instead of voting on our site, you vote by participating on Twitter. Each time that you send a link to your followers on Twitter, Twitturly takes a note of it and applies your vote to that URL.
