in We are the water cooler we want to see: 2009 will be the end of the echo chamber. on This is going to be BIG!
Interesting post, but i think you missed the point. *Authority* on twitter could be useful (especially from a brand manager's pov).
I agree that many pay less attention to the "water cooler" and want unique info; not something rehashed from the echo chamber. Most social networks already have this built it. This is how I found you and your blog. Someone I trusted sent you an @ reply, then I checked your profile... For people who want unique point of views, they can easily find them.
On the other hand, if I'm searching for my brand's name on Twitter, I'd like to filter by followers or authority. As a brand manager, I'd need to talk with people who had the most followers first (being careful not to neglect anyone else.)

in Anatomy of a Better Twitter Bot on seamonkeyrodeo
Hi,
Thanks for updatting this script. I'm running your new version but I'm getting this error: Not an ARRAY reference ... line 141.
Line 141 starts with "foreach my $item (@{$data->{status}})."
Is anyone else getting this error?
Thanks,
Greg

Hey, Greg -
My first guess is that it's a known bug that I should document (or fix,
for that matter), where the script doesn't gracefully handle cases where
the call to the Twitter API to get replies is successful but returns no
replies. (When I originally wrote the script @lotd already had a bunch
of replies so I didn't encounter the bug while putting it together.)
If that's it, the simplest workaround is to just seed the Twitter
account by sending it an @reply -- as long as there's at least one for
the script to find you're good from there on out.
Let me know if that doesn't work and I'll dig into it a little.

You're a product manager, not a PR manager. You should care more about
aggregate statistics... like... 50% of the people who mentioned me on
twitter love or hate my product. It shouldn't matter if some 10k+
twitter user hates it or loves it, b/c he's not necessarily any kind of
an expert in your product area.
