Have you ever faced a situation that you'd like to share tweet with particular group of people, but don't want to follow each of them directly on Twitter?
What if you'd like to target your tweets to different Teams, not individual team members? Team is every group of people which has common interest(s), such as classmates, football team, neighbors, ornithologists of New York area, or any other.
Team members may come and leave, however Team stays the same. This is another reason to keep connection to the Team in general, not to each individual team member.
RoundTeam is free autoretweet service, a Twitter application, which invents a concept of a Twitter Team. Team is just an account from Twitter perspective, but it represents an interest or group of interests, not an individual person.
So, there are four simple steps to leverage Twitter in a new way:
- Choose existing or create new Twitter account to represent your team.
- Add this account to RoundTeam -- free online retweet service
- Specify what and from whom to retweet. It can be #hashtag, @mention, or just a keyword.
- Invite people to follow your Team on Twitter
Some of the benefits of this approach:
- No need to follow each team member directly. Individuals may join and leave, commmunity tweets are still delivered to those who are interested.
- This is better than Twitter "saved search" because saved search cannot send SMS to your mobile device once new tweet is available. Also saved search is something that each team member have to configure on their accounts.
