I'm not sure how long twilert has been alive, and can't remember where I saw it, but someone was tweeting about it the other night.
With twilert, you can set some search parameters, and get a daily email of any mention in the titterverse of those items. You probably wouldn't want to use a common word as a parameter unless you like scrolling through really long email, but if you're very specific, it works quite well.
Since I can't get to twitter during the day, I know I've missed some replies or queries to me, so I opened two queries:
- WynApse -- hey, it's a word I made up... only applies to me, so you can't get a lot more specific
- 'Silverlight' and 'Cream' -- and that one has been working good too.
This way I can at least see if someone posed something for me. I still miss out on all the good links that get passed around, but it is what it is.
I can think of lots of uses for this to track discussions about your software, your site, your blog, brand, band, ex-girlfriend, etc. :)
Thanks twilert!
