2. How to you keep a record of interesting
tweets you send?
When I come across great articles I share them out on
twitter but I don’t always store them myself.
This presentation shows a few different options for saving
my tweets.
3. 1. Finding Tweets sent worth saving using
allmytweets.net
Twitter only stores the last 3,200 tweets you send and
doesn’t provide this in a easy to view format.
Allmytweets.net allows you to enter your twitter ID and
then display the last 3,200 tweets.
4. According to the list below it retrieved 3,243 tweets
which is slightly over the limit allowed by twitter.
This gives you an easier way to navigate through your
tweets to find relevant ones you want to save.
5. 2. Bookmark your tweets with Diigo
Diigo is a neat bookmarking tool that allows you to store
links to relevant content.
The free version allows you to do unlimited bookmarking.
In Diigo there is an option to link your account to twitter.
6. You could do the following:
a). Favourite tweets in twitter and automatically save
them in Diigo.
b). Only save favourites that have links.
c). Automatically tag items coming from twitter e.g. tag
them ‘tweets’ so you know they came from twitter. Also
tag items with hashtags already specified.
7. You can use Diigo to automatically bookmark
twitter links
8. 3. Bookmark to a selection of places
using Packrati.us
Packrati.us monitors your twitter account.
When it comes across links it automatically adds these
links to your favourite bookmarking site such as
Delicious, Historious & Pocket (Read it later).
You can also bookmark website addresses in replies to
you.
9. 4. Use a URL Shortener for every link sent
An alternative method is to use a website address
shortener when you are sending links.
For example, if you use Bit.ly to shorten all your
addresses this keeps track of what links you shared.
You can also search through these links.
