    Great post. I will give it a try. I just don't care for desktop apps since I switch computers often enough to make it a pain.

    Not sure I'll use this as my main GUI, I like Twirl better, but its future post feature is great for marketing stuff...

    All I need is a tool to block all the "susy1976" girls as my followers with just one click and make their pic disappear !
    That will be my tool !

    Hey everyone Cory here I did the UI design and usability for this app. I hope you all love it as much as we do. It initially started for personal use and it became so handy that we just had to share. We'd love to hear anything you have to say about it good or bad so feel free to follow @easytweets on Twitter! and my personal Twitter account is @coryschop

    Speaking of alerts and tweets, found something funny on digg.

    Unfortunately it was mashabled so it seems like their server is getting lots of requests and isn't holding as it should.

    What would be useful is a tool which allows posting the same post to more than one account at the same time.

    Wow, the RSS plug in makes it easy to turn any blog into a twitter feed. Is this how Pete Cashmore does it?
  • Hanna · 1 year ago
    This will be fun to use!

    Have been trying to get EasyTweets to pull RSS feeds all weekend to no avail. Don't think they tested this much before releasing either on the back-end or with their UI. This could be great, but the inability to pull and post the RSS feeds you've added renders it useless for me.
  • Alex · 1 year ago
    @Jay We had some issues with the various different feed formats at launch as our initial feed parsing algorithm was only designed for RSS and not Atom etc. I believe this is the problem you experienced.

    In the past two weeks we have made many modifications to our feed posting algorithm including making the feed reading and parsing much more robust. We have also made some significant changes to the user interface and how feeds are handled and how they integrate with our tweet queuing and posting system.

    I think you will be pleasantly surprised when you get the chance to give it another try. :)

    Too bad Twitter sucks. Why bother making a tool to interface with it?

    Hi,

    Don't quite understand why you don't mention this is a paid subscription type service when many other apps are free? Do you have shares?

    Please include the costs in you reviews. (sorry if i missed it but it was not obvious on the page.

    All the best Dave

    Ok ok, i'm sorry i was wrong. They do have a free version. But buried away under all the fecking stuff about how you can choose to give them $50 a mo for extras. Why do people do that?

    It just scares people off. It really looks like they are in it for the money and they will maybe start to charge you if they can of gentle nudge you that way in the future.

    What can you de? I guess that maybe the way Twitter will go in the future when the whole world is hooked.

    Difficult to see but then they did just drop the texting service for most of the world and more recently Canada. They didn't step in with a pay per text option but they must be racing around just to keep up with their own long tail at the moment. :-)

    Wish i had their problems!

    Peace etc. Dave
