Twitter Applications for Businesses
December 1st, 2009

If you follow us and/or have been using our Twitter applications for a while, you might have noticed that we shut down four of our apps last week. We’re focusing on applications that businesses can use to enhance their social media presence, so here are or current apps and how you can use them to improve your business online.

Twtpoll + TwtSurvey - You can create polls or web surveys and get feedback from your followers/customers. Besides getting feedback, this is a great way to start a conversation with your followers. Check out a quick demo below.

Twtvite - You can organize “Tweetups” and get to know your followers in more than 140 characters. Besides the networking opportunities, Twtvite is great for bars/restaurants/coffee shops to attract more customers to your place. Check out a quick demo below.

TwtBizCard - You can exchange business cards via Twitter by adding the #twtbizcard hashtag to a tweet. This is a great alternative to traditional business cards on Tweetups.

TwtQpon - Offer exclusive discounts to your followers. Create and share online coupons.

TwtAway - Run an Online Contest. Acquire new followers, get them to re-tweet your contest and let TwtAway select the winner(s) at a specific date/time.

TwtJobs - Create your Twitter Resume or post a Job Opening at your company.

TwtFAQ - Reply to your followers/customers inquiries on Twitter in more than 140 characters and build a FAQ page that can be easily linked when you get the same questions again.

TwtTRIP - Planning a trip? Share your travel plans and we automatically find other Twits traveling to the same place at the same time as well as Tweetups at your destination.

Add a Twtpoll to your Twtvite!
November 23rd, 2009

Twtvite releases today the option to embed a Twtpoll directly on your Twtvite. Many people have been using Twtpoll to decide what dates/venues they should use for their Tweetup, as well as the reason why they’re coming and what they thought about it.

In order to include a Twtpoll, you must be an organizer of the Tweetup and sign in to Twtvite using your Twitter credentials (via oAuth).

After you’re signed in, you can just go to your Twtvite page (a quick way to get there is by clicking on “My Twtvite”, which will display all upcoming Tweetups you’re organizing and/or have RSVP’ed.

Once on your Tweetup’s page, you will notice that you have direct links to edit it, update RSVPs, or cancel it.

In order to include a Twtpoll, you will see on the right side on the page (below the list of RSVPs) a place to include the URL to your Twtpoll (not the embed code - just the URL: http://twtpoll.com/code). This is also where the Twtpoll will show up.

Twtapps to shut down four apps this week
November 22nd, 2009

Over the past year, we’ve been experimenting with several ways to use Twitter. Some of our apps were well received, some others not so much. In the past few months, we’ve been restructuring to focus on the business usage of Twitter as a communication and marketing platform. Therefore we will be shutting down four of our least performing apps on Friday (Nov 27)

Please don’t read between the lines. Our other apps are doing very well and they’re not going anywhere. This will free us up to keep improving on these apps, so expect more features and a better integration between them.

So, the Twtapps that we’ll be shutting down on Friday are:

TwtBiz: Twitter Business Directory. There are many well built Twitter directories out there and we see no need to maintain this one as it is.

TwtWlst: Twitter Registry Gift. We believe the general idea still has some potential, however it’s not one of our focus at the moment.

TwtPets: Game for pet lovers. Who doesn’t like pets, uh? We’ve enjoyed seeing all the Twitter Pets out there, however this is not an app in line with or current focus either.

TwtCard: Twitter Greeting Card. This was our very first app. It was a fun little project that got us started thinking about other ways Twitter could be used for.

We’d like to thank everyone who have used these apps and have taken the time to contact us with comments/suggestions. We really appreciated it!
