Dave Delaney : Dave Made That: Mentions on Twitter

  • TheJennTafur · 9 months ago
    So this ability is going to be the same as using http://search.twitter.com and searching our *@username* in there? I know not everyone uses search.twitter.com but for those of us who do, I wonder if this another option for us now? I dunno. Thank you, Dave! [I am @2Serenity on twitter now from @thejenntafur]

    Yes it's the same thing. Summize was another option, it's nice to see it
    back up after some down time recently.

    I'll be sure to follow the new you ;-)

    Cheers,

    Dave, wasn't Summize acquired by Twitter and turned into Twitter Search? Or is there a separate Summize engine still? Curious because I find that Twitter Search has been pretty glitchy for the past month, probably as they work on rolling out the handful of new features we've seen. Would be nice to have a backup. Either way SO excited to see the "Mentions" tab!
  • Dave Delaney · 9 months ago
    Yes, they bought Summize and changed it to Twitter Search. I keep calling it
    Summize though, it's shorter to say ;-)
    I use Tumblr to archive my tweets: http://davestweets.tumblr.com/archive

    Cheers.

    It blows my mind that twitter.com is still the most popular way to use Twitter! With TweetDeck, Twhirl, DestroyTwitter, Twitteriffic, etc... who would use the website? I personally love DestroyTwitter. Great app for the desktop. TwitterFon is great for the iPhone.
  • Dave Delaney · 9 months ago
    I will give DestroyTwitter a try, I just came across it the other day. I
    highly recommend the iPhone app, Tweetie. It's the best one by far.

    Or you could use the Twitter analytics tools built into Raven to check all of your retweet and other stats. Just sayin'. :)
  • Dave Delaney · 9 months ago
    Oohhh shameless plug. To be honest I need to start using Raven again. I'll
    get on that soon.

    Twitter seems to have new stuff every day. They always seem to be tweaking it. I use tweetdeck and twitter 50/50.
  • Dave Delaney · 9 months ago
    Well, I'm not so sure about that. But there are plenty of new services
    popping up all of the time. I still need to give Destroy Twitter a whirl.

    Cheers,

    Thanks Dave, I just subscribed to your feed, ahh if only others could write as well as you. I applaud Twitters move here (as most times I do) and I would just like to remind them that; One Person Can Make A Twitterence

    Thanks Dick,
    I really appreciate your nice comment! Keep making that difference.

    Cheers
