If we were to filter out any content, we would be breaking the agreement we made with Twitter when we started developing on top of their platform and they could revoke our access.
Thanks for the tip about pitching. The copy on the site needs work, so we'll be sure to make sure it explains exactly what Tweetdig is and what it does.
Our blog and twitter account is a bit neglected, but we feel that our time is better spent improving the product than writing blog posts. If anything, I'd say that shows that we're even more invested than if the blog + Twitter were very busy. If we were to spend more time on the social side of things, what would you like to see us do?
- bstpierre 14y agoRe filtering: I guess from my perspective, all I'd really want is a binary filter with two "folders": worth-reading and crap. I'd never look at the crap folder, but you could still say you're presenting me all of the tweets. Re social: Again, I fully understand where you're coming from. It's a hard thing to balance. Surely in the 3 months of no blog posts, though, there must have been something new you added that would have been worth blogging? It doesn't have to be earth-shattering news, maybe just show some signs of life. Maybe spend 20 minutes every Friday afternoon to mention what's new that week? Maybe tweet one or two things every morning about something semi-related to your service.
- mheap 14y agoYou're well within your rights to send tweets to a folder but never read them :) Things do happen! Unfortunately most of what we do is technical, and our (perceived) target market doesn't really care about that side of things. I'm sure we can find one thing a week to say though.
