FoxTV + Twitter = Tweet-peats!
2009-09-03 23:28:00 Fox TV is the first major network to strike a deal with Twitter to follow tweets while viewing two of their popular dramas. This is an innovative tactic by Fox to attract an audience to watch repeats, programming that tends to draw in low numbers on the Nielsen ratings! Hence the birth of tweet-peats!

Top Ten Twitterati, A Tweet Above The Rest
2009-08-25 14:26:00 While the movers and shakers on Twitter might be just "micro" bloggers...they sure know how to create a "macro" influence. Forbes Magazine compiled a list. Every country has their own top ten ranking. The top most influential tweeps within the DC Beltway according to Politico lists Barack Obama as number 4 behind Dick Gregory, Claire McCaskill and Karl Rove. You can determine your own list by tallying a user's number of followers, their number of tweets, their number of status updates -- or an algorithm thereof.

Retweet.com Launches, Tweetmeme Also Launches Re-tweet For Blog Comments
2009-08-21 06:18:00 Tweets have become a viable business model for many startups. Tweetmeme, provider of retweeting promotional plugin would soon be facing competition from a new entrant-retweet. Earlier Techcrunch announced the launching of retweet and also the ongoing tussle panning out between the two services due to clash in service names. The retweet service looks similar to tweetmeme at first glance. The major addition has been the manual submission of link to the retweet site which is absent in Tweetmeme. Even the plugin button looks quite alike tweetmeme style. Retweet Vs Tweetmeme Retweet although being similar to Tweetmeme has a major disadvantage as it transfer its domain link in retweets. Tweetmeme whereas retweets through RT at their own profile.

Tweet leads to defamation lawsuit against Amanda Bonnen
2009-07-28 18:22:00 The Chicago Bar-Tender has the story of a woman's tweeting leading to a $50,000 defamation lawsuit, and it's making headlines across the city today (Tribune, Sun-Times, CBS2). Horizon Group Management filed the suit after Bonnen sent the following reply to @JessB123: "You should just come anyway. Who said sleeping in a moldy apartment was bad for you? Horizon realty thinks it's okay."...

A realty company in Chicago sued a tenant for a comment about mold.That less than 140 character rant about mold could cost that person $50,000 because the company feels the scope of Twitter combined with the tweet was defamatory and damaging.I'm not a lawyer but I watch a lot of Law & Order.

Exhibit A: Will one Chicago woman's Tweet cost her $50,000?
2009-07-28 00:21:00 Who knew less than 140 characters could potentially cost more than $50,000, in the form of a defamation lawsuit? That's something Amanda Bonnen is discovering the hard way. In May, the Chicago resident did what many of Twitter's millions of users do--she tweeted a complaint. Specifically, she tweeted THIS complaint: Today, Horizon Group Management filed a lawsuit against her, alleging that her statement damaged the company's business reputation.According to the complaint filed in Cook County court today, Bonnen "maliciously and wrongfully published the false and defamatory Tweet on Twitter, thereby allowing the Tweet to be distributed throughout the world."Bonnen has 20 followers on Twitter....

Toward a better CTA Tweet
2009-07-07 14:00:00 Guest post by Dan O'Neil. In September of last year I launched CTA Tweet along with Harper Reed. When I wrote about the system on the CTA Tattler, I warned that it might be lame. That lameness definitely came to pass, and over the last few weeks I've made some changes that I think make the @ctatweet Twitter account a lot more useful.First, a quick recap on why @ctatweet was lame: No mainline feed of authoritative information. The old CTA Alert system that many of you may remember was great because the CTA itself was the largest contributor of information to that system. This made people trust it and to be quick to provide their own authoritative infoThe @replies to...

Tweet the treats: what office snacks are you eating?
2009-07-06 13:55:00 Aw, aren't your co-workers sweet? They're bringing in pies, and cookies, and brownies... but really, they're just trying to make you fat. Case in point: at the RedEye office, weekend editor Jim Walsh brings in bagels every Friday, but he calls it "Fattening Pastry Fridays." Does that sound like sabotage, or what? He says, and I quote: "They're technically not even pastries." Yes Jim, but they're fattening. Anyway, we got some of @redeyechicago's super twitter followers to share with us what fattening foods their friends brought in over the course of the week. Hit the jump to check out what Chicago's offices are eating.

Twitter’s Tweeters and the Twagic Twits They Tweet
2009-05-20 12:00:00 Oh, no! Not again! Yes, again! The tech world is all hot in the pants for some new buzzword! It goes around and around the blog world. They can’t stop talking about it. they fall asleep blogging it. From the people who brought you the AJAX hype machine and the Second Life viral marketing campaign, meet Twitter! Let me make it clear for the one leper colony member who has been locked in a basement for the past two years and thus has not heard the news: What is Twitter? It’s IRC. On mobile. Yeah, that’s it. Oh, OK, let’s back up a little. It’s not IRC. If IRC lost all but one of its servers, had its scripting and commands taken away, was confined to 140 characters, couldn’t share files, and had no moderation, then Twitter would be IRC. The sole innovation is that it runs on mobile devices. One IRC client Perl script ported to the Blackberry and Twitter would be gone faster than the first funk train out of Jivetown. That’s why everybody&rsq...

The Tweet-Cops — Law Enforcement’s Use of Social Media
2008-10-09 20:01:00 Despite being a late adopter of technology generally, the real estate industry has embraced social media better than most industries have, and arguably behind only politics and technology. Here’s an interesting use of social media from a completely different industry: law enforcement. Joanne Fraser, who sells real estate in Los Altos CA, informs me that a local police department (Mountain View) is now on Twitter. (See here.) They don’t have a lot of followers or updates yet, but kudos to them for embracing social media as a way of staying better connected to the community. Turns out the Scottsdale police department is also in on this. Neither Scottsdale nor Mountain View, however, are still quite “there.” They’re using Twitter right now only as a way of disseminating information: 14 year old takes seizure medication. It is unknown when she took it last. She has long brown hair and is wearing green shirt, blue jeans. SPD in area of 28000 N. 59t...
Most bloggers should tweet instead
2008-06-13 11:25:00 In the cacophonous jumble of thoughts that bounce through our heads every day, there are a few that stand out. We feel compelled to share these observations and ruminations -- the uncommon moment, for example, where you see a mailman who is walking quickly and smoking a cigar.I've been using Twitter for about a month now and I've found it's a handy way to bookmark such observations and ruminations when they happen. And I've come to appreciate the beauty of Twitter's brevity constraint: your posts (or tweets) can be no longer than 140 characters. What's so good about this extreme conciseness? This: it forces you to get to the point. Have you ever taken a random walk down blog street? Granted, there are great blogs out there, but the vast majority are one of two types:Ramblefests: Stream-of-conscious rants that are ferociously uninteresting.Copycats: Multi-paragraph quotations from news sites and other blogs, with maybe a sentence or two of original commentary.All the bloggers t...
