TweetMeme Channels for Events

Recently we’ve been working hard adding a range of new TweetMeme channels to our site.  Since there’s always a lot of events on throughout the year we have been creating some for the big events of the year.  Here are some of the latest channels that we’ve created for current and upcoming events:

3 GSM – Providing the top stories from the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona

The Brit Awards – Covering hte news, stories, nominations and winners of the Brit Awards 2010.

Winter Olympics – Picking up the top stories, news and medalists from this year’s winter Olympics in Vancouver.

The Oscars - The top stories, nominations and award winners due to be announced in March 2010.

Mother’s Day – Bringing together some great Mother’s Day ideas from across the Internet.

We will continue to add new channels including events channels throughout the year.  If you want your event to have it’s very own custom channel on TweetMeme or integrated with your own site then please do contact us to arrange this.

Mobile Retweeting

choice_pageWe continually listen to what publishers want and a repeat request is to support mobile users. The problem with mobile is that a large proportion of users use Twitter applications to do their tweeting. So today we would like to announce that we are supporting native retweeting on iPhone Android and Blackberry.

When we serve a retweet button to a mobile browser we switch it to a mobile specific version – and when the user clicks the button it sends them to a screen that lets them choose the mobile application that they use. And for users who do not yet have a Twitter app – we suggest a few to use. And if you do use Twitter on your mobile browser we can redirect to that as well. And of course we remember your choice for any further retweeting.

And just a quick reminder why we server over 120 million retweet buttons a day.

  • 80% of our users now use our OAuth retweet button, this means that the user never leaves your website.
  • Support for 15 Short URL services
  • Support for RSS / Email buttons
  • Free Retweet Analytics + PRO Analytics
  • The recognised brand for retweeting

Look out for the new release early next week.
