FaceRoller - Twitter With Pictures

From Daniel Nations, About.com GuideApril 17, 2008

Follow me on:

If you've ever wanted to make a tweet about your chipped coffee mug and thought that a picture would go along great with your message, then FaceRoller has a solution for you. FaceRoller is a microblog service where you attach a photo along with your message. Along with the photo, FaceRoller will store your location, so each message can be defined by where it was sent.

A neat website, though I wouldn't call it a Twitter-killer. The ability to attach a photo will allow it to attract an audience -- if it can fend off the other Twitter-clones that allow people to attach photos such as Twitxr or Zannel.

Of course, for those who are happy sticking with Twitter, you can always mix things up with a mashup.
