Add Interactivity To Your Twitter Pictures With New Service

Ever post an image to Twitter than needs more context? Well ThingLink now allows images posted on Twitter to be interactive. ThingLink is a rich image creator that allows for visual tagging of any photo.

Twitter has been making a heavy push towards interactivity with Twitter Cards & enhanced content. ThingLink works within a Twitter image to include tags and context without escorting the Twitter user off the site. The ThingLink service is free and allows for a variety of tagging and linking.

This Tweet is a good example of the power that can be harnessed in an image – directly on Twitter:
