Ok, so now: how do I improve my open rate?

Which version of the API are you using?
303.
by julien_c 14y ago
It does, and I'm using it.

Why middlebrow then, and not lowbrow? Honest question, from a non-native speaker.

Then the app would probably be of little use to you anyways :)

It actually says "Inspired by Buffer" on the homepage, with a link to Buffer :)

I get your point. It was actually more of a "nod of the head" to them, but I can see why it would look unelegant. I've actually started pitching it as open source tweet scheduler, actually.

I think that the fact that "text-heavy banners get high click-throughs" is pretty counter-intuitive. Also, have you tried using CPM rather CPC?

This is interesting, though it's probably more relevant for Facebook posting than for Twitter, as Twitter doesn't display the app name anymore (and it's a shame!).

Well, one limit you can reach quickly with Buffer's free tier is if you want to use it with multiple accounts on the same platform (say, multiple Twitter accounts). Thanks for the kind words, I'll think about writing something about the app

I love .io domains because as they're slightly more expensive you only buy them when you need to use them.

Nice! Wrong direction though, right?
316.
by julien_c 14y ago
Yes that's it.

by julien_c 14y ago
Please, let's not talk about it again – what do you think about the app itself?
318.

That's the thing, you don't have to schedule each tweet individually. You just top up your buffer and have posts tweeted automatically.

This is the exact reason why I left a small visual cue to the old name :)

Circular developer here. Ok, so last month I launched an open source clone of Buffer, built on top of Backbone, Bootstrap and MongoDB, and named Tampon. Many people hated the name... However, the app as well as the open source project have

If it's accidental, is it really a DDoS? Or a poorly deployed/coded app? :)

It's really easier to re-compile your CSS from modified LESS files.

by julien_c 14y ago
You should package an app out of that. iTrashcan? :)

Real time collaborative Web apps (think Etherpad or Facebook) made 100x easier.

What's the difference/how is it positioned compared to Upverter ( http://upverter.com )?

If you happen to be in Paris: Momoka is amazing.
