Twitter Tracking

December 16th, 2007

twitter You can track keywords in Twitter using the “Track” command. From the Twitter blog, here’s how it works: “If you’ve set up your phone or IM on Twitter, you can send a command like: track NYC. When someone (anyone who updates in public) mentions “NYC,” you’ll get it on your device in real-time. From there you can send “whois username” to find out more about that person, or “follow username” to follow his or her updates. Don’t want to receive anymore about NYC? Toggle it off with: untrack NYC. You can create as many of these as you want, so send “track drinking tea”, “track iphone”, “track walking san francisco” and you’ll receive matches for all. Want to get a list of what you’re currently tracking? Send “track” alone (or “stats”). Turn them all off by sending “track off”. “

    Is there a way to get track notices though email instead of SMS?
