No updates for the Twitter Toolbar to announce. I’m announcing something else instead. It’s the Tweetmeme button that I added to my blog. Since I added it by traffic from Twitter has nearly doubled. Here is a recent post I wrote about it: Tweetmeme Doubling My Twitter Traffic

You can see the button in action on the bottom left of ever post of the site.

Twitter Toolbar Idea

No updates yet for the Twitter Toolbar, but I recently had a great suggestion by one of the users to give it a quick minimize option. Basically, I will be adding a feature where you simply add a Twitter button to your main toolbar. When you click it, it drops down the Twitter Toolbar, and clicking it again minimizes it. Nice way to keep your screen space.

Also, for those of you into building websites…I just wrote a new post about how I think Google wants websites to be more specific with their content. Hope you spend a few minutes reading it, I spent some extra time writing this one. Google Wants You to Be More Specific

Looking for Your Input

I have been busy lately with my primary business of doing my Web Usability and Design Analysis, but I’m thinking it’s time for a new update to the toolbar.

I’m considering adding a search box (fairly easy to do), and a method to support multiple accounts. I would love your feedback on it, so let me know what you would like next for the Twitter Toolbar. Is there something in particular that is bugging you?

Twitter Lately

Filed under: Uncategorized — by camp185 @ 11:41 am

Twitter has certainly been sucking eggs lately. It’s still experiencing site outages, it failed to break even 25m monthly visitors in July, it dropped a rank on Alexa, and gotten a few slaps from Corporate America saying that using Twitter during company time is a no no.

I just thought I would share this with you. Most of you know my main site, BestWebImage.com. Well I am currently running a contest where you could win a free copy of Boss Cart direct from the developer. Boss Cart is a kick butt shopping cart software, and its retail is $289. If you haveĀ  website, or build websites I would at least sign up for the contest. You may not need it today, but you never know what you might need a few months from now.

Anyhow, it’s easy to sign up. All you have to do is comment on this post: http://www.bestwebimage.com/archives/win-a-free-copy-of-boss-cart-premium-shopping-cart-software/ Use your real name, an email so I can contact you if you win, and a brief reason why you might want it. I am picking a winner by random at the end of July 2009.

What’s Going On With The Twitter Toolbar

Filed under: Uncategorized — by camp185 @ 9:10 am

I was just spending some time this morning looking at all the sites that are now talking about my Twitter Toolbar, and was getting pretty excited about its gain in popularity.

When I first introduced the toolbar it averaged about 35 downloads a day from my site alone. Now it’s averaging close to 100 downloads a day, and I expect by next week it will be a lot bigger than that. Downloads are occurring all over the place now.

Mozilla has a statistics page for us developers so we can see how the downloads are going. On their site there has only been about 1,000 downloads in total, but another figure is quickly going up, daily users. The daily users figure is going up screaming fast.

Here is how fast the toolbar popularity is growing (based on Mozilla’s stats). For every 100 people that use the toolbar this week, 24 more will use it next week. 24 doesn’t sound like a lot, but this week over 400 people use it daily. That means next week around 500 people will be using it daily. Another way to see it is by looking what the number will be like just a month and a half from now. I’m forecasting over 2,000 people will be using it daily by the end of August. My forecast is based on a very steady trend line based on 18 weeks of data.

Two Big Add-ons Planned

So the two big add-ons planned are search, and sidebar. You can expect the search function to appear on the next updated, and the sidebar action to occur soon after. I have had several requests to have the toolbar just make use of the sidebar instead of an entire web page. Sounds like a good idea to me!

Twitter Toolbar Gaining Momentum

Filed under: Uncategorized — by camp185 @ 11:55 am

I forgot to mention how the Toolbar is starting to gain momentum, especially after verion 1.10 kicked in. I wrote a post about it on my main site, BestWebImage.com, and since I wrote it, the numbers continue to grow at an even more accelerated pace!
