Tweeteffect
March 19th, 2009
Ever since I signed up for Qwitter it hasn’t worked for me (I’ve already chatted with someone over there and he was delightful, so now I’m being patient) – but I just found a site I may use in the meantime.
I don’t know if I entirely trust it, but I like the idea of it. Tweeteffect is essentially Qwitter in that it shows you how many friends you lost or gained during your past 200 Tweets. It has a great color code that simply shows you if you had an increase or decrease in followers after a Tweet. It also bolds certain Tweets if the increase or decrease in followers happened in less than five minutes.
The only thing I don’t like about it is that there seems be a 5-hour delay (for me at least). But I guess that’s not a huge problem.
While I don’t want this to impact my Tweets, I do think it shows me which ones work best in the community. For example, I’ve now learned that people don’t like hearing about local weather. Done. People love knowing quirky stories. Good to know.
