Roundup : Repeets, twtbizcard, twitmatic, hoodlenow, tagth.is

Filed under: tools, roundup

Repeets - yet another hot tweet site based on retweets, also see Retweet Rank, Retweetist, Re-tweetradar, re-twit’d

twtbizcard - from the folks at twtapps…you can now create a virtual business card, and send it to someone eg @elusa here’s one of my cards to keep in touch #twtbizcard
It also keeps track of sent and received cards, and tweets and retweets…only the people you send it to can read the details

twitmatic - search and watch video’s being linked to in Twitter.

hoodlenow - yet another site which displays tweets by location, so you can know what’s happening around town, see more under the groupings section in this post.

tagth.is - tweet @tagthis with a link and keywords, and that link will be bookmarked in delicious. I prefer this to Tweecious which automatically bookmarks every tweet that has a link. But what I really want is a button in my favourite Twitter sites like dabr and filttr to send a tweet to delicious

Roundup : TwitterCompressor, twitwoop, Twitoaster, Twonvo, Twitterel

Filed under: tools, roundup

TwitterCompressor - compress your tweets, also see Twi8r, 140it

twitwoop - speech to text tweets…maybe now we can tweet while we drive

Twitoaster - threads reply tweets to your tweet. This is what I referred to in my post the other day. On our reply tweets we have a link to the tweet we are replying to, but on the original tweet we don’t have a list of replies (similar to comments on a blog). But this is even better, for each tweet you have the replies, just like blog post comments, but if one of those replies has replies of it’s own, then they too will have those tweets threaded…so it becomes a tree like conversation. Here’s an example.
You will also notice each tweet has its own RSS feed (at the moment it’s not promoted as it’s an experimental feature, but you will find it by the browsers auto-discovery feature), here’s my RSS feed for the example above (basically, just add “/feed” at the end of the URL.) This means you can subscribe to the feed of a conversation. Twitoaster has more features, go check it out.

Twonvo - similar to Twitoaster, enter a Tweet URL and view all the replies, similar to viewing comments on a blog

Twitterel - find Twitter users with related interests

ConvoMonitor - multiple keyword searches side by side, for more power check out monittor, peoplebrowsr, or TweetGrid

TweetALink - a URL shorterner that displays your tweet at the top of the page, only this one has a bookmarklet

Roundup : MyCleenr, Tinker, AddTweets, BigTweet, Twitlet

Filed under: tools, roundup

MyCleenr - remove people you follow based on their last tweets

Tinker - turns a keyword or hashtag search into a nice stream that resembles a profile page rather than search results. When you create an event stream you can filter out keywords (even keywords by specific users) and even limit the whole stream to particular tweeps (so basically you can make a public group stream). Each event page has takeaways like an embed code and an RSS feed. If you register you can follow an event (just like following a tweep). You also get a profile page. Here’s an enterprise 2.0 event.

Add Tweets - add a javascript box to your site

BigTweet - a bookmarklet, also see TwitSnip, TweetMyPage, TwitThis

Twitlet - yet another bookmarklet
