Taylor: I blogged about Jaiku briefly after its acquisition. Twitter has first-mover status, so Jaiku is a second for me now. Plus, I don’t see enough of a value-add to jump to it.
The link you sent looks promising. I’ll tag it for reading later.

Thanks guys. It was the first time I used Twitter API to do something (hopefully) useful. I had fun doing it, which proves that I’m a geek.

I also enjoyed the conversation/collaboration among Jake, Craig and Dennis on Facebook and Twitter. Hopefully this is just the start and an indication of more useful things to come.

Jake,

There are a couple of products and efforts in place that are beginning to address group twittering.

Check out http://jaiku.com/ . Jaiku was purchased by Google a few weeks back and seem to be the furthest along at this point with a product.

Also check out Factory Joe’s detailed overview of his iniatives related to group twittering http://factoryjoe.com/blog/2007/08/25/groups-for-twitter-or-a-proposal-for-twitter-tag-channels/

Actually not using the “tracking” feature of Twitter, although that might be cool will have to go take a look.

Basically the idea is not far off from what Eddie did, but in this case no duplicate feeds but the downside is that it’s not targeted like Eddie’s. In my case I look for a “start” on the keyword e.g. “start*oow” then all tweets from that user from then on will be tagged and collected so if you search for “oow” you’d get everyone being tracked. So no need to use “oow” in the tweet the whole time but again not as directed as you get all the “noise” during the whole time until the user does a “stop*oow”

Kind of weird how two threads start in different direction then come full circle and start to merge.

Update: eventtrack seems to be putting along quite nicely only a few kinks so far that have been worked out.

Couple of comments.

1. Eddie your script is awesome.
2. Twitter needs to deliver the long promised group functionality. 70% of the tweeds that I get this days are crap .

my cell phone. So I can blog from the demogrounds, sessions, some bar of an evening that Im sure to end up in – OK maybe not the bar. Hopefully, those of you that can not make it will get some ‘publisher’ flavor of OOW. I’ll not be ‘twittering’ thou -Jakementions the OOW twitter stream created by Eddie on the AppsLab blog – I still can not see the value. If I can get images and editorial out to the blog in the same time that I can ‘twitter’ a message then why not blog it to the masses – easier to

The burning question for me: how much value is being created? I couldn’t give you an ROI style calculation but for convenience in accessing information of interest it’s hard to put a price. It’s worth noting thatJake also thinks this is a great idea: Right now, it seems ironic that the first conference to test eventtrack is OpenWorld, but such is the new web. We are all working together to scratch that itch, and traditional boundaries no longer mean anything.
