Google Buzz 

twitterberry1 So a friend is attending some conference somewhere and in one of the sessions he was in he learned of twitter.zappos.com. Apparently, the shoe GOD zappos has instituted a twitter feed to their site that allows visitors to see the good and bad of the twittersphere when it comes to zappos. Simply mention the word zappos in a twit and you’re in the feed. its rather cool and its led me on a search for a plugin that does the same…

I came across two that are kind of similar the first is Twitter Fountain. TF creates a flash like animation of whatever the search term you specify. Its ok but not really what I’m looking for…

The other is closer. TwitterDoodle searches the twits and creates a post based on your search and search intervals. The post can be posted to the front page or not and you can create as many searches as you’d like. Its actually a pretty cool tool. Here’s a post of the mentions of Delusions of Grandeur (not just this website but any time those words come up in a twitter!) in the twittersphere. How cool is that??

If you have another twitter tool you’re using, let me know about it….
