Twitter Weekly Updates for 2010-02-28

by Kate Foy on 28 February, 2010

This is the first posting using Tweet Tools weekly digest option. First reaction … my goodness, but I do tweet a lot! Second … a useful tool to archive your tweets – if you need such a thing, and third observation … the little hashtag at the end takes you to the original tweet. Nice. And what I’d really like in Twitter Tools … the option to post a digest of specific hashtagged tweets. Now that would be sweet!
