Twitter Invades World of Warcraft via TweetCraft

It was inevitable. Twitter has entered the gaming arena. (If it hasn’t already, that is – and I’m sure it has… I just don’t keep up that much with in-gaming Twittering.)

Recently added to the CodePlex (Microsoft’s version of SourceForge.net) is a little app by the name of TweetCraft. As you’d expect from the title, TweetCraft enables you to both read and compose “tweets” while within WoW. The app is currently on a stable release and can be downloaded from tweetcraft.codeplex.com… and it actually looks pretty cool. Plus, like with any above-average Twitter client, you can schedule your tweets and even send screenshots of your current game using the built-in TwitPic integration.

Plus, if you’re a WoW fan/Visual Studio expert, you can easily enhance the application and create your own TweetCraft addons. If you’re not big into programming but might be interested in learning and are still a student, you can grab a full version of Visual Studio 2008 (plus alot more) via Microsoft’s DreamSpark program.

Check out the insanely-awesome overview video below or just start playing with the app now.

(Seriously, that has to be one of the most well-made promo videos I’ve ever seen.)
