Solving the Twitter Home Feed Noise Problem by Qweboo Qweboo – A better way to keep up to date with your interests on Twitter.
How Qweboo Works How Do we solve the Twitter Home Feed Noise Problem? How can we interact with the right target audience & engage with the Tweets that we truly want to see? How can we create an easy way to tap into the gold mine of tweets stuck in the Twitter black Hole of your Home Timeline? When you login to Twitter and view your Timeline you can’t go past the last 800 tweets. So for example, if you were to follow 500 accounts you basically can’t see tweets in your Home Timeline that are over 5 hours old.
3 Hours for my Twitter account What if I wanted to see tweets from the sources I follow around the topic of sports since I’ve been busy and haven’t had a chance to View Twitter in the last 2 days. You would literally have to go to your Twitter search bar, click 3 times until you find the “people you follow” filter and start typing one hashtag or keyword at a time to see different keyword feeds from your network relating to your sports topic. You may search basketball, then you search football, then baseball, a phrase of keywords etc. A monotonous way to track an interest topic. You may ask how about Twitter lists? I’ll soon show you how they are part of the solution to the problem. What a pain in it is to track an interest topic on Twitter. You can use the popular Tweetbot app which provides an easy way to search your timeline but since you haven’t been active for some time you will see time gaps of hours or even days between searched tweets that were never fetched by Tweetbot because you weren’t active on the app so it couldn’t make the necessary API calls to fetch your timeline.

Connect Connect Qweboo to your Twitter account and it will start analyzing the tweets from the people you follow and will start to categorize them into your interest feeds that update in real time in conjunction with your Home Timeline. Qweboo works similar to your client on your smart phone making offline api calls to fetch your Home Timeline every hour and cache these tweets inside Qweboo. Qweboo Live Pages are like your mini community interest networks that allow you to experience Twitter by interest in real time. Qweboo will also start to categorize the people tweeting to your Topical interest feeds into their appropriate communities. Qweboo will then create a Twitter list of the community of people for each different Live Page topic you are tracking and will also manage the list for you as well.
“ Are you are familiar with Twitter clients such as Hootsuite and Tweetdeck? Well Qweboo is synonymous to them but instead of using columns to track tweets by topic. We use “Live Pages”. Unlike Columns, Live Pages act as your mini interest networks. Just like your main Twitter profile has a Home Feed. Live Pages have a unique Home Feed (Discovery Feed) as well. They have their own following/followers (Your interest community) and they Track your engagements to the page as activity notifications so you can later engage with your target audience in a timely and human like manner. The future Pro version of Qweboo will allow you to humanely automate your actions on your approved target prospects. Imagine you follow 1000 people and 200 people are tweeting about sports, 150 are tweeting about politics, 300 are tweeting about entertainment etc. Qweboo will identify them and place them into their appropriate Community live pages.
Marrying Twitter Lists to Qweboo Live Pages Creating & maintaining Twitter lists to track tweets by interests is a tedious task. You see, lists are part of the equation to solving the Twitter Noise and engagement problem. When you create a Twitter list you are creating a “network boundary” to filter the tweets from this specific sub-network. But can we really call them interest lists? To a certain degree yes but in most cases they are not. If all I tweeted about was sports then all my tweets would be relevant to the sports list you placed me in but most Twitter users don’t just tweet about 1 topic.I asked myself, how can I create an interest feed that would be uniquely relevant to me? Well, it would have to be from the sources I trust and value (The people I Follow or put into a list) And the topic should also be relevant to my specific requirement on what makes the topic relevant to me. Just like Twitter lists allow you to define a network boundary, Qweboo Live Pages allow you to define a keyword boundary that makes the topic relevant to you. For example we can both be using the same Live Page to track the community topic tag #sports inside our network. But you may follow different sports sources and you may like different sports than I do. So you would create a keyword/hashtag/ phrase boundary of related words inside the Discovery boundary of the Live Page feed that will make the topic relevant to you while I may have my own set of keyword/hashtags and phrases for the same topic that makes the topic relevant to me.Under this model for content consumption, the people tweeting to your Topic’s Discovery boundary becomes the community list within your interest network. If you think about it, the people you follow on Twitter is just your grand profile network list. All your mini social interest network lists are sub divisions of your larger network that you’ve listed (followed) over time.
Live pages have 2 modes content aggregation. They have a “Community Mode” and“Discovery Mode”
Qweboo analyzes your keyword boundary of your topic and will suggest the most relevant users to follow
Creating or editing Live Pages Note: A Live Page is defined by its community hashtag & it’s purpose for the topic. The purpose of the hashtag community topic becomes important when you create a unique hashtag where you want to create a specific meaning or brand In our simple example #Sports is a general topic that does not need a purpose Let’s take the image example above with community topic tag #Sports. Simply put the word sports in the community field to define your Live Page’s Community hashtag. The community hashtag is where you curate & collect tweets to feed for the topic. It’s also where others who share the same Live Page (community hashtag topic) with you, curate and collect their tweets to feed for their Live Page. The Qweboo feed for the community is the aggregate feed of feed collections to the same hashtag topic. It creates a common ground for users to share relevant and valuable information to the community and its purpose. This is Important because Qweboo users can copy live pages from each other to save time & help spread the interest community hashtag and its purpose.
A Topic on Twitter cannot just be a hashtag feed alone because hashtags on Twitter are public and can be interpreted in different ways by different people. People in your network tag tweets with all sorts of different hashtags that may relate to the main topic you want to track. So that’s why it’s important to set a topical boundary to aggregate all the relevant tweets that matter to you. Thus helping you save time by not having to browse single hashtags and related keyword feeds independently on Twitter search. Your Live Page’s home discovery feed allows you to connect and disconnect live tags from your discovery text field write from the feed itself. You can fine tune and adjust your discovery feed while you browse in real time. For example, the picture above with #NHL + tag on the side of the feed. If you would have clicked that green + on tag it would now be connected to your discovery mode. Vice Versa, disconnecting tags that are no longer relevant to your discovery feed is just as easy.
Let’s say you wanted to create a more specific Live Page to track tweets from the sources you follow for your favorite Basketball team. For me, my Discovery word boundary for the LA Lakers may look like this. => Laker Live TagsLaker Live Tags The sky is the limit on how you can track Twitter topics on Qweboo. You are the creator and you decide how general or specific Live Pages need to be to suit your interest needs. LOGIN LOGIN or SIGNUP WITH TWITTERSIGNUP
