Tweetree: an organized look at twitter output and the "BIB" conference output

Tweetree (clicking on the image or the text link gives you my Tweetree) is an organized look at any twitter stream of interest to you.

I'm enjoying the Internet Archive's "Books in Browsers" conference, co-sponsored by O'Reilly Media with support from Magellan Media and Copia Interactive,  held  in San Francisco Thursday-Friday, and will be back with a short report on that this weekend plus the usual Kindleworld news.

Until then, as treetree.com says on its front page:

  "Tweetree puts your Twitter stream in a tree so you can see the posts people are replying to in context.  It also pulls in lots of external content like twitpic photos, youtube videos and more, so that you can see them right in your stream without having to click through every link your friends post."

The format you'd use to search Tweetree for a topic of interest to you is:
    http://tweetree.com/search?q=bib10

That particular search for "bib10" gives you a Tweetree of spontaneous remarks from the 90 or so at the Books in Browsers conference, to their Twitter-stream followers, as it went along Thursday.  As with Twitter, the latest comments are at the top of the stream, which is always shown in reverse chron order.

NOTE: TO AVOID SPAM being posted instantly, this blog uses the blogger.com "DELAY" feature.

Am often away much of the day, and postings won't show up right away. Posts done to use referrer-links may never show up.

Usually, am online enough to release comments within a day though, so the hard-to-read match-text tests for commenting won't be needed this way.

Feedback and questions are welcome. Thanks for participating.

Technical Problems?
If you're having problems leaving a Comment, Google's blogger-help asks that you clear the 'blogger.com' cookies on your browser's Tools or Options menu bar and that will fix the Comment-box problems (until they have a permanent fix).

IF that doesn't work either, then UNcheck the "keep me signed in" box -- Google-help says that should allow your comment to post (it's a workaround to a current bug).
Apologies for the problems.

TIP: There's a size limit. If longer than 3500 characters or so, in a text editor, make two posts out of it.
