TwitterLocal tell us that Twitterlocal lets you generate an RSS or XML Feed to filter out Tweets around a certain area. Just enter a city, state, postal code, choose the range of miles you want to include, and hit the button. You’ll instantly get URLs to add to your RSS reader.   Worth a try if you want to find local Tweeters!

Backup your Twitter followers with Tweetake!

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)

The great thing about twitter, and indeed the Internet in general, is that once something is out there and read, it’s pretty difficult to get rid of it.

So a whole generation of Internet users can grow up making idiots of themselves on twitter, and then being constantly reminded of it by articles such as this one on Inside CRM.

Particular favourites of mine from this article:

In addition, the Mistakes and Anger sections make pretty good reading.

Thanks to jcolman for this one.

twitter graphTweetstats

You can enter your username and see how many Tweets you’ve sent – all in a pretty little graph!

Find out how you compare with the rest of the Twitterverse and then try hard not to worry that you sent 100 Tweets in the last 10 hours ;)

If you Tweet a lot it can take an age to load the first time, but be patient :)

My graph is here

Have you ever wondered who has the most followers on Twitter? Well, wonder no more.

Twitterholic ranks Twitter users in order of the amount of followers they have.

You can also see the number of Tweets they have posted, and their own URL.

At time of writing, the precious number one spot is owned by Kevin Rose, of Digg fame.
