Infoteria, the company behind the TwitCal service (Twitter calendar), is launching an iPhone application – allowing users to share, follow and publish event information through Twitter.
In other words, you can use TwitCal to:
- Tweet events – i.e. birthdays, anniversaries, public events, etc.
- Follow other people’s calendars – family calendars, artists’ event schedules, sports game days and so on.
- Share event information with friends – TwitCal touts itself to be the perfect solution for managing multiple calendars.
The iPhone app supports multiple views — including day, multi-day, list, week, 2 weeks, month, and Hybrid month and day views — and 6 languages: English, Spanish, French, Chinese, Korean and Japanese.
Finally, there are widgets that enable automatic event synchronization between TwitCal and Google Calendar or iCal (Mac OS X), which make the application even more usable.
If you’re an avid Twitter user and a frequent “event goer,” you’re probably already using TwitCal. Now you can access it on your iPhone, too. I’m guessing porting of the application to other platforms is planned for the near future…
