I'm trying the "digg for tweets" thing (http://laughlitm.us http://laughlitm.us), its hard to gain traction because its hard to get a viral loop going without needlessly injecting the site into retweets. I am happy with how people can submit though.
- adrianwaj 16y agoThat's a niche site, how could you broaden it out, though? Another interesting idea, would be for submitters to authenticate with such a site, and have it check their "retweets_of_me" "retweeted_by_me" and "retweeted_to_me" aiming to surface what's important. Tweetmeme has a comedy channel, I wonder how they get their tweets. http://tweetmeme.com/category/comedy http://tweetmeme.com/category/comedy - but the tweet is not initially shown, only the link and its extracted content. Is there a twitter site aimed at crafting the best possible lists in certain categories?
- imack 16y agoThe idea of counting favourites or retweets is actually the idea I was working against. I've always figured that makes it easy to find already easy to find tweets. To say nothing of "retweeted alot" != "funny", even if its from a comedian feed. I would assume tweetmeme flag comedian feeds and counts retweet links. I believe there are list sites, but the focus is on the feed rather than the tweet.
