Backup your Twitter followers with Tweetake!

August 10, 2008 By 3 Comments

The brainchild of Alfred Armstrong and Nikki Pilkington, Tweetake is here to allow you to back-up your followers, people you are following and Tweets with just one click.

Why bother to do this? Many reasons:

  • Twitter may lose followers again like it did in June / July
  • You may change your Twitter name and want to re-follow the people you were following, and contact the people who were following you
  • You may want to refer to a Tweet that you sent more than 90 days ago (the longest twitter keeps Tweets for)

They say:

TwitterPoster is a mashup created from Twitter, the microblogging service owned by Obvious LCC (Blogger Xanga, Odeo).

Twitter Counter – how popular are you?

@NikkiPilkington" href="http://twittercounter.com/?username=NikkiPilkington">TwitterCounter for <a href=@NikkiPilkington" width="88" height="26" /> Funky little service that allows you to monitor the growth (or not!) of ‘followers’ of your Tweets.

The more followers you have, the more people will see your messages, and the higher the likelihood of them being ‘re-tweeted’ and passed around.

In addition, if you really want to show off, you can add an icon to your blog or website that shows how many followers you have – probably not advisable if the number is less than ten ;)
