If you pop into your favorite twitter post (“tweet”) reader, you’ll find that many of the contributions contain web links. People, including yours truly, are very often sharing something interesting that they found online.

Clicking to open these items, however, takes you away from the list of posts you are reading and exposes you to other content. This is a problem for me because I fall victim to “shiny object syndrome” and waste 10 minutes reading an article I didn’t know I needed.

Enter Tweetree.com to save me not only the extra clicking, but also the wasted time from following internet rabbit trails. Tweetree pulls the content of shared links right into the page where you are reading the tweets of those you follow. Presto! Clicking and rabbit trails disappear!
