Yesterday’s Twitters are tomorrow’s fish ‘n’ chip virtual paper

October 8th, 2008 by Sandlines | Filed under iphone, sidelines.

Maybe the whole point of twitter is that it is time-sensitive. If you feel that strongly, stop reading now.

But a colleague of mine was twittering from a conference that my company, Silverpop, staged yesterday in London. He was using his pet iPhone for the task.

Apart from showing some of the things that I’m professionally interested in, I was curious about how the twitters worked to develop a historic record of how the event worked. I’d love to hear any feedback!

   It was great getting a chance to read RZ’s updates from the conference - It was clearly the first live-blogged Silverpop conference. The challenge to make them part of the “historic record” is to make sure, especially if you have multiple individuals updating their streams, is to consistently use a hash tag or keyword for searchability later.

   From briansolis tweet - http://twitter.com/briansolis/statuses/963935765 - there is an excellent list of tools that can make trend tracking in Twitter come to life.
