TidyTweet Update
For those of you keeping score, TidyTweet is one of the latest products from Rockfish, and a handy-dandy tool for easily creating corporate friendly Twitter feeds from various keywords, hashtags, or in the case of my homepage, username mentions. The beauty behind the product is that it scrubs foul language and spammer behaviors by default and produces a PG rated feed that you can confidently place anywhere you want people to view what the twitterverse has to say.
The latest round of upgrades to the system involve some user experience changes and more importantly, spam filtering upgrades allowing you to filter out posts from newly created accounts as well as those using multiple trending terms in a single post. I liked that these filters can be adjusted on a sliding scale.
Tie these filters to previously available filters for usernames and available moderation of feeds and you can make any feed suitable for the church bulletin. They’ve got more upgrades on route and Michael has even suggested customizable feed views so that when I post a link like this:
It could formatted to match my site, very cool concept, especially for setting up third party feed sites.
The long and short of TidyTweet is that it’s a powerful tool that is going to keep improving. If you have need for twitter feeds, take a look at their site. The product is great and the guys behind it are second to none.
