(meteorobs) FW: twitter

[Buddy Oakes]

A friend has a twitter process called ReTweetBot that sets up a group that you send a tweet to and it sends a tweet to all who follow the group name. Here is a discription of how it works. It has worked well for sport teams, traffic and other uses that are prone to have info that may be desired by a group.

 

As indicated below, you could contact pwnicholson at gmail.com directly to explore getting a meteror group set up in this fashion free of charge. I can vouch that it works incredibly well at sporting events when multiple users comment on something that happens in the game and everyone else receives the tweets instantaniously.

 

Just a suggestion.
