Twitterish by Mixx
Twitter must be doing something right as other social media sites just storm in and add something Twitterish to their site. Not long ago Facebook bought Friendfeed to arm themselfs with microblog capabilities and now Mixx launches Tweetmixx.
According to the Mixx team this is what Tweetmixx bring to the table:
”
A better way to search across twitter for content that is of most interest to you. No need to follow 10,000 people in hopes of finding the best content about the Beatles. Just enter “Beatles” in as an interest and we’ll find the best content being shared!
A Shortcut to just the links your friends are sending. We all have those friends that tweet great links that get lost among their AWESOME weekends and their mommy problems. Cut out the clutter and get just those links using the YourFriends view.
Automatic unpacking of all those itty bitty URLs into useful headlines and descriptions.
An all-in-one Twitter dashboard that replaces having to go to one place to tweet, another to do saved searches, another to see your friends’ links, another to check out hot topics, and yet another to see the most popular content on twitter! Whew–see how we like to save you time?
In short, Tweetmixx turns Twitter into a content recommendation site, even if you don’t follow anyone.”
This initiative are attempting to control the Twitter whirl wind, but is that really possible and is this the way to do it?
You tell me, in the comments
I really like the idea and I have had a positive experience so far.
Even if I can get this done using tweetdeck or other tools.
I will absolutely keep logging in to follow what this new site has to offer me.
Please comment and let us know your thoughts.
