Nearby Tweets, A Twitter Tool Review
23 Jun2009
Nearby Tweets
Find a detailed list of local Tweets
The Basics
Nearby Tweets does just that -finds local tweets for you to connect with. It lets you type in a location (with city and postal/zip), keyword and the distance radius. A great way to find targeted tweets from your home turf.
What They Say
Was developed by Brian Cray to extend Twitter’s capabilities into its true potential: a geography–centric social tool for networking and a business tool for building customer relationships and monitoring real–time buzz. With Nearby Tweets’ sophisticated geographic layer on top of Twitter people and businesses will find Twitter more relevant, manageable, and fun!
Pros
Incredibly simple, very fast, targeted.
Cons
The drop down search is sensitive to mouse settings.
What Fred the Toolman Tweets?
