Online buzz is quite cool
Hi ๐ you're reading a pretty old post! I started writing on here back in high school and this page may not reflect my current views. Recommend checking out related articles and categories down below, I've likely published more recent thoughts on this topic.
Yesterday I had my first ever experience in being on the receiving end of some proper online buzz with Twitulater. It started out with a writeup on go2web2.0, which I thought was just another blog mentioning Twitulater, two days ago. Hey cool, so I commented. How wrong I was!
The blog turned out to be something read by a lot of people, even, it would seem a somewhat important blog since the very next day when I searched twitter for mentions there were a TON. I think the number stopped at just over 20 and although I realise that's not a lot for many products out there, but it's quite a big deal to me. Best part was how I even got some congrats from people for that writeup. Yay!
All of this had a wonderful consequence of website visits being about ten times larger than usual yesterday. Sure, in my case this meant only 100 visits, but for a project that usually gets under ten visits a day, I do think getting a hundred is magnificent. In fact, some microblogging service contacted me and asked if I could integrate their API. Haven't replies yet, but it's looking very likely to happen.
Must say I'm quite glad how well Twitulater is turning out as a project and it's almost unbelievable that, with all the other stuff going on in my life, I've come so far in a mere four months. Loving the whole ride!
