Twitter needs a save tweet button

Jul 11, 2011 | Posted by Scott DeToffol in Twitter | 0 comments

I use Twitter’s Favorite function to bookmark tweets that I want to review later. It’s very handy, except for one thing: all Favorite tweets are public. There are many tweets that I’d like to save but I don’t necessarily want as part of my public profile.

I want a Save tweet function that is private. Twitter, please add Save tweet!

BTW, the Favorites you mark (using the star icon) can be accessed via RSS. Just put this address in your browser address bar or RSS reader:

http://twitter.com/favorites/TWITTER_USERNAME.rss

Replace TWITTER_USERNAME with your twitter username.

The start of something great at Four51 and FanTools

This week I started a new job at Four51 as Product Director of FanTools. FanTools is a social marketing application, available as a monthly subscription service, that helps businesses build fans, create offers and other promotions, and distribute them over various social media like Facebook and Twitter. Social media is a massively growing phenomenon that is changing the nature of marketing and business promotion. I’m thrilled to be working on a leading-edge product that helps businesses tackle the complexity of online and social marketing.
