Monitor Twitter For Certain Keywords With Sideline
Twitter is a service that is being updated thousands of times every second, so monitoring twitter for mention of your product of service is really important, we had told you about one such service earlier called Tweetbeep, which helped you monitor twitter for mention of your product or blog posts, even if the URL was shortened using a URL shortening service.
If you want such alerts on your desktop, Yahoo has released a Adobe Air based application called slider which allows users to watch, search and monitor the Twitter public timeline in real-time.
