On their site they say “Folkstown.com is only a glimpse into what’s on people’s minds. For Caribbean marketers, Twitter provides you with an effective way of spotting new trends, conversation topics and points of view.” With folkstown.com you can read incoming tweets, suggest a Caribbean Twitter user and you can check for the top tags. In fact it kinda reminds me of a Caribbean version of wefollow.com.
