CtrlTwit Lets You Control Apps Like Pocket, MeetUp, Instagram Through Tweets

Here’s one for the Twitter addicts out there: a new app lets you control a host of other web services, right from within Twitter.

With ctrltwit, you can get FourSquare recommendations for restaurants, save links to Pocket or subscribe to a YouTube channel without ever having to leave Twitter.

ctrltwit works like this: when you want to access an app via Twitter, you just tweet a command. For example, if you absolutely loved a YouTube video, just reply like this:

“@user @youtube subscribe #ctrltwit”

And you’ll be subscribed to the channel of the video in the tweet you replied to.
