What’s Twitter?
The New York Times says:
Twitter is a simple messaging service that you’ve either heard about a lot or not at all. Either way, it’s a fun and useful tool, well worth trying if you want to reach potential and existing customers, employees or employers.

Hey, I’m using Sinatra! http://twitter.com/ariejan
I’m using Sinatra, feel free to add me to the list \o/
You should add Nick Plante (http://twitter.com/zapnap) to the list. His open source Retweet app (http://github.com/zapnap/retweet/tree/master) is a nice example of using Sinatra to search Twitter. I found it to be a great way in to Sinatra and DataMapper, and took it as a starting point when I set out to build http://all-sorts.org/
@damon is using Sinatra for http://doesfollow.com. He runs the Austin Rails group http://austinonrails.org. I’m using it for http://tweepdiff.com but my importance pales next to his
.

@bdeter
Nick Quaranto (@qrush), Joe Ferris (@joeferris), Dan Croak (@dancroak), thoughtbot (@thoughtbot).
Me too: @brupm
Matt Todd (myself) (@mtodd), Charles Brian Quinn is (@seebq), James Edward Gray II (@JEG2), Andre Lewis (@alewis), and Derek Haynes (@dhaynes23) all use Sinatra and are on Twitter.
I used Sinatra at work to build a replacement FTP-like client (http://upload.citylaw.org), and I’m using it now to port http://omgfriends.com to Ruby. You can see what I have so far at http://omgfriends.heroku.com
I’m using sinatra for twitter apps (http://github.com/moomerman/sinitter/tree/master) and yes I’m on twitter (@moomerman).
How can this list be any good if the creators of Sinatra, @rtomayko and @bmizerany are missing?
Sinatra is fun , we are also making a small app , should be live in a few days .
