- Twitter has acquired Summize, a tool used to search recent tweets for keywords. The URL http://www.summize.com will now redirect to http://search.twitter.com.
- I’m checking out TweetBeep. Supposedly, it’s like Google Alerts for Twitter. I stress the importance of Google Alerts to anyone who doesn’t know, so this will probably be an important resource as well.
- Larry Chase has compiled a list of 18 of the Top Twitter Tools & Resources. He’s got some on his list that haven’t made it to my Online Publicity Resources page yet. But I’ve got some listed that he doesn’t have, too. (By the way, that Resources page will be evolving pretty heavily pretty soon. I’m breaking the list of resources up into different pages for authors, artists, and musicians to make it easier for people to find tools relevant to their fields.)
- Andy Beal wrote an article about 5 Twitter Tactics for Building a Stellar Brand. The first line in his list is what I consider the Golden Rule of Twitter: “Don’t be the guy that jumps on Twitter, “follows” 10,000 people, then tweets “@” them every two minutes.” Thanks to Ivana Taylor at Strategy Stew for tweeting about this article.
