I’m still not quite sure how to manage all the information that comes down the Twitter pipe…WOW!
HootSuite.com is making that task much, much easier!
You have to watch the video to get a good understanding of how HootSuite works and what it can do for you.
The Column Embed:
The feature we are focused on is the ability to embed into your blog, any “column” that you have created using HootSuite. Simplicity at its finest! All you need to do is create a column with your favorite keyword (up to three) or search criteria and then click on the “embed” button. This brings up the embed settings window which allows you to choose a title, dimensions, primary & background colors, refresh frequency and profanity filter. Once you have made your choices, you are then given the embed code to place in your site. (embed code is Flash)
HootSuite is a relatively new service (1 year old approx.) and is winning many awards:
- HootSuite has won Mashable’s 2009 Open Web Award for Best Twitter App
Shorty
Canadian New Media Awards
Groundswell Awards (selected as a finalist)
Here is what the embedded column looks like in WidgetsLab green.
