Twitterers’ tweeting rate … and bloggers

Around the World, Micro Blog, Techie, Twitter August 27th, 2008

Based on the people I follow on Twitter, I have noticed that people are tweeting more before lunch CTZ than in the afternoon, irregardless of geographical location. It seems like people stop tweeting for the second half of the work day, then they pick up again latter in the evening.

I guess it is true, people slack in the morning more than in the afternoon. Of course I have read other wise, but I think that the opposite is only true for the first quarter or half of the work day morning.

I believe the same holds true for pro bloggers. There seem to be more posts in the morning. My guess is they write some in the morning and more in the afternoon, which would explain fewer posts in the afternoon. They publish in the evening writings from the afternoon, then write some more and schedule the posts for the morning. If all that makes sense.

So, tell me twitterers - what do you think? Do you agree or disagree? Have you noticed any other trends or facts about twitterers’ personalities, behavior, or patterns?

Twitter tool plugin: finally doing what it should have!

Design, Micro Blog, Techie, Twitter August 21st, 2008

Yayeee, finally the Twitter tool plugin for Wordpress, by Alex King, has been updated to add the options of being able to choose the digest post time. The plugin is still in beta, but it still works, and I am happy with it.

The only reason why I found out that there is a new version of the plugin is because I want to tweet (Micro post.) but I want my tweets (Micro posts.) archived. The only way to have the tweets archived is to use the twitter tool plugin, but it does daily digests. I find the post formats some what unapealing, and I really don’t feel like moding the source code to exclude the Twitter digest posts. This resulted in me avoiding Twitter and micro-blogging for most part. For some reason today, I decided to check for a posible update of the plugin, because I was hoping for a weekly digest option. Magically, not only there is a weekly digest option, but I can have both daily and weekly, And I can select the post times for both. If you remember some time ago I complained about how the Twitter-tool plugin would randomly generate the posts, thus missing twets from the same evening.

I am very please with the added functionality and I can also get back to micro-blogging. Thanks Alex, even though you did not respond to my email! :)

  • Trying to figure out how to use “print to file”. I want to preview the file without printing it first. #
  • BTW, how come Window$ does NOT know how to handle .prn files? They have been around for at least 10 years. WTF M$! #
  • Why the F do I need to use 3rd party software to open a file format that SHOULD be native to Windows or just about any word processor? #
  • I received a free rental on iTune’you out’ of Rambo: It’s a Long Road. Resurrection of an Icon. That’s a f-ing long title… #
  • …and I just realized that it’s NOT the movie but simply documentary/commentary. FU iTunes’your moneys from your pocketz’ Long live M$ Zune #
  • … which reminds me - I need to check on eBay for any affordable ones. Hopefully the *) GB one. The specs look very nice…. #
  • Why am I typing this all of this? I should just blog it. #
  • @Mav_rick nice. It reminds me of incredible machines. #
  • @Fitz uhh, what race. @egspoony self proclaimed himself :) #
  • @Fitz of course the @ColonelTribune wasn’t too far behind #
