When a friend showed me the Twitter app he was building not too long ago, I was pretty darned excited. I knew for a fact that this app would greatly appeal to Twitter users who would like to keep track of their followers, especially in the wake of the great Twitter follower drop of 2008, courtesy of Twitter themselves.
The app is called Tweeple Twak and it lets you track your Twitter followers and keep an eye on trends. You can see when someone un-follows you and you have the option of sending a discrete message to that person to find out why they decided to do so. It may not win them back, but it certainly would provide some valuable insight into who’s unfollwing you and why.
In addition, Tweeple Twak provides some nice charts and graphs that help you keep an eye on follower trends. Did you get a big bump in followers one month? Now you’ll be able to visualize when that spike happened. Lost a lot of folks one day? Maybe it was something you said. The...

No iPhone 2.0 yet? Me neither. I’m sticking with my Blackberry Pearl until January when my T-Mobile contract runs out. (I’m nothing if not practical.) The iPhone news is killing me though, so I thought I would spread a little love for the other smartphone for a change:
Zumobi has come to the Blackberry [...]...

Yesterday, I asked the question “ Who do you follow on Twitter ?” This all started because @chrissieb was looking for recommendations – from @corvida, who is definitely the Twiter maven. (She’s actually the queen of all social media, but you knew that already). Well, I made it on @corvida’s list, so I responded to both of them. One thing led to another and next thing you know, I was blogging it.
Anyway, her tweet reminded me of an older post I did on RWW called ...

You know how this goes – you mark it for later and then don’t get around to it. Maybe these wouldn’t have filled out an entire blog post or maybe there’s not that much to say about them, but they’re worth a mention nonetheless. They’re kind of awesome. This is no spliced in del.icio.us link list – I killed that long ago, please go do the same. This is a list of worthy links.
I’ve done this before , but it’s not a regular feature. Anyway, here we go:

Chrissie Brodigan ( @chrissieb ) was looking for recommendations about who to follow on Twitter. It’s sort of a hard thing to say because determining who’s “best” is so subjective. If you’re a web designer, you’ll want to follow other designers; if you’re a tech geek, you’ll want to follow other tech geeks; etc. etc. There are so many micro-communities on Twitter, a definitive “best of” list is difficult. I started to do this, but I’ll admit – I got tired. Here...
