Twitter, Mixx, Twitter, Mixx: Tweetmixx!
Posted by Kerry on September 9th, 2009By now you know that pretty much everyone in the universe has joined you in the Twitterverse. Yep, even the President, Martha Stewart and Steve’s mom have decided that you were right all along.
But a teensy problem with everyone joining the party is that they are bringing tons of wonderful, exciting, useful, new, curious, strange, odd and oh-dear-god-how-did-that-get-in-here hostess gifts. And because so many of these gifts are now wrapped up in cute little packages without so much a tag hanging to show what might be inside, you never know whether you are going to get something “cute” or something “oh-dear-god-how-did-that-get-in-here.”
Basically, its getting harder and harder to find the good stuff on twitter–the stuff that’s relevant to you. And because the Mixx purpose has always been to help you find the content that matters to you–whether that’s stories, videos, or photos, we thought “who better than us to tidy up this little mess?” And so we launch today what we humbly believe to be the most useful product the Twitterverse has ever seen: Tweetmixx!
As you might guess from the name, Tweetmixx blends the best of Twitter and Mixx to give you:
- A better way to search across twitter for content that is of most interest to you. No need to follow 10,000 people in hopes of finding the best content about the Beatles. Just enter “Beatles” in as an interest and we’ll find the best content being shared!
- A Shortcut to just the links your friends are sending. We all have those friends that tweet great links that get lost among their AWESOME weekends and their mommy problems. Cut out the clutter and get just those links using the YourFriends view.
- Automatic unpacking of all those itty bitty URLs into useful headlines and descriptions.
- An all-in-one Twitter dashboard that replaces having to go to one place to tweet, another to do saved searches, another to see your friends’ links, another to check out hot topics, and yet another to see the most popular content on twitter! Whew–see how we like to save you time?
In short, Tweetmixx turns Twitter into a content recommendation site, even if you don’t follow anyone.
We could go on and on, extolling the benefits of Tweetmixx, but we think it might be better for you to head over there and give it a try–we’re pretty sure that you are going to love it as much as we do.
As always, we want to hear what you think, so please send your Feedback. If you can’t fit it into 140 characters, that’s ok. We’ll let you run on–especially if you’re telling us how much you love, love, love it!
