*** Hi all, unfortunately the changes to Twitter mean that Twiku can no longer post tweets. Poor old Twiku never sold enough to warrant any more time being devoted to it so instead of removing it from the store Im making it free. I hope you all enjoy it! ***

If you love using Twitter, but need to spice up your tweets, you need Twiku for iPhone and iPod Touch. Twiku is the app that turns your tweets into pure poetry. Literally! After writing hundreds of tweets, they all start to sound the same. Boring, right? Twiku livens things up by helping you turn your tweets into beautiful Haiku poems.

Twiku was developed with Twitter in mind. Since Haiku poems are all about packing a lot of power and meaning into just a few syllables, theyre never boring, and perfect for tweeting. If youre not sure how to start, Twiku has a built-in tutorial that shows you what Haiku is and how to build one.

There are four styles of Haiku, the original Japanese form, and three western forms; and Twiku knows them all. While youre composing, the app continually monitors your progress, and figures out which type of Haiku youre writing. With a built-in 120,000 word dictionary to draw from, and the ability to count syllables and ignore hashtags, Twiku will tell you exactly what you need to finish your poem.

If your muse should abandon you partway through your Haiku (and it happens to the best of us), you can save your masterpiece -in -progress as a draft, and come back to it when your inspiration returns. When youre finished, you can post your poem to Twitter, straight from the app. Or, if you like, you can skip Twitter altogether and take it right to email.

Now that youre published, you can go off in search of inspiration for your next literary feat; or just sit back and let Twiku bring it to you by searching and downloading poems that other people have tweeted.

All the worlds a stage, and with Twiku on your iPhone or iPod Touch youve just become one of the players. Twiku has made you a poet, and now its time to let the world know it!
