Dynamic Tweets – schedule your tweets in advance

Dynamic Tweets offers a tweet deferral service like a few others we have reviewed. It works well scheduling out tweets for reminders and marketing as the website shows. Also, if you have something important to say in the middle of the night, when not many would see it in the great stream that is twitter, having it set to publish during normal hours just makes sense.

You do have to register for the service, but I wish they had implemented oAuth already. This means you will create an account with them and then give your Twitter credentials over to them as well. I always think the worst and I am not saying they would use it harmfully.

Now they do most of the end user service for free, with a fremium model for professional and corporate users. The full chart can be found right here. Such things as sending predefined tweets based on keywords is saved for money paying customers. Multiple Twitter accounts are available to any level though.

TweetMiner – content discovery for Twitter

I ran across TweetMiner and was intrigued that it was a tool that could bring RSS news feeds in and allow single click tweets right from the content. The goal is to search and mine for web content that you then easily share with followers. Once again you become the micro-community search tool for your followers.

There is both a web and desktop client available and demo videos to help you grasp how it all works. Adding a feed uses Google keyword search to build the feed and the you start bringing in news articles that can be instantly scheduled. You may also schedule them for somewhere in the future.

Now there is a few plans, from free to Max with varying costs and features. the number of feeds you can bring and and using your own bit.ly account are some of the things you end up paying for. Free accounts are only allowed 5 searches to generate RSS while the Max gives unlimited. You get the idea.

A lot of people have started to use Twitter as a new inbox. After all, you’re sending and receiving messages all day.

Twittercal: Add Google Calendar Events Using Twitter

Looking for an easier way to update your Google Calendar via Twitter? Twittercal is one way to go! Twittercal is really simple to setup and use:

Login to your Twitter account.
Follow @Gcal
Grant access to your Google Account via the Twittercal site.
Now add events using the following structure on Twitter:
“d gcal meeting with paul tomorrow at 7pm”
“d gcal meeting with fred on monday, 25th of june at 9am”

Note that you’re using the direct message feature so that your tweets are not displayed to the public. Wouldn’t want everyone to know what all you scheduled events are.

FutureTweets: Schedule Your Tweets For Later

FutureTweets is pretty self-explanatory given the naming of the service. Using FutureTweets you can schedule a tweet for a later time and even schedule recurring tweets daily, weekly, monthly, or yearly. The service also keeps an archive of your scheduled tweets and when new ones are due to be sent. FutureTweets has yet to implement the Twitter oAuth button for login so you’re required to set up an account with FutureTweets followed by manually entering your Twitter account information.

TwAitter – a Twitter scheduling platform and client

TwAitter allows you to schedule tweets to happen in the future, at specific dates and times for whatever reason you may have. You do log in with your Twitter credentials, so the normal warnings there. When you first log in it will ask you to verify your timezone (to know when to schedule tweets right) and your email address. I set my timezone and clicked OK and got no warning about not entering my email address. The service is listed as free for personal and free for business up to 500 tweets per month.

The UI is very clean with your Twitter bio info down the left with some nice web 2.0 type icons for scheduling and seeing the calendar for future tweets you have scheduled. The rest of the UI just, well works. It looks nice and it easy for anyone to understand.

Scheduling was quite simple. You can even make tweets reoccurring. I am not sure why…. oh wait. a marketing team would love this. Maybe a weekly tweet? Like when we move the EverythingTwitter into it’s own feed I could set a reminder to go out to everyone where it went!

Cool alert that is hidden away. Besides the fact they have a nice little refresh icon to update the recent tweets of those you folow, they have the standard reply and retweet icons also. But the cool part was this little check mark. If the tweet has a checkmark then it is tell you that person follows you back. A great little bonus.

Coming soon: They are adding a Feed Manager soon to allow you to grab RSS feeds and place them into your Twitter stream. So basically a one stop shop for web client, scheduling and feed input manager. I also caught a small icon they had and I am guesing here, but it looks like multi-account managment too. I saw my IdoNotes account listed with a nice Account section but no way to add or manage others. I am guesing they have the UI location set but not the code.

WHOA, I found the account management. It is under Settings, then there are tabs for accounts and also the coming feeds. I was able to add other accounts and even schedule under those form one interface. Well ok I couldn’t get a single other acocunt to load. All gave me invalid user errors. Not sure what the deal is there.

TwitterTime – designate times for your tweets to occur

TwitterTime is another scheduling site for generating tweets to be published in advance for a specific time of day.

Say you were going out and about and you wanted to notify your friends where you’ll be tonight at 7:30 PM. With TwitterTime you can now do just that.

To set your timed status, you would simply login to your account and set when you want your status to update and to what. It’s that simple. What’s even better is you can access TwitterTime via the website, email, and even SMS!

All for free.

Free is the best word besides the access from many types of devices. I tested it and it worked great. The form itself asks what date and time/timezone you want the tweet to appear. You also had the option to email in a tweetwith some simple formatting you can find our their webpage. I did not try that as I can see myself using the simple web interface the most.
