Twitter May Have Some Competition

UberMedia, a company which has coded multiple Twitter apps, may be planning to launch its own site to compete with the social networking giant.

CNN says, the service would be designed to address common problems people have with Twitter. For example, it might eliminate the length restriction (140 characters) or make the network more accessible to newcomers who are confused by the standard UI.

Twitter has crushed competition in the past, in particular FriendFeed and Google Buzz, and now boasts around 200 million registered users.

Just last week, Twitter released statistics saying users were sending 155 million tweets a day, a 282% increase from a year ago.

I'm not sure Twitter has anything to worry about.
