That's all we need is a product based on another product that is for dorks with big egos who think people actually care about their tweets or someone trying to sell something and hopes people care. Great example of yet another "look at me" web 2.0 application. What a joke.

I have decided Twitter is an ego boosting machine. It's the quickest way to let your followers know that you are the biggest, baddest and brightest. Now Tweetmeme is going to track who's first at being the biggest, baddest, brightest. Any time you can reinforce someone's self opinion by letting everyone else know what you already believe - you have a business model. (I plan to use Twitter for exactly the reason I just described.)

"Preemptive Publishing It seems to me that some of the of newer communication tools / platforms are about satisfying people’s desire to be the first to tell the world that they divined, discovered, and announced something - to scoop the news before everyone else.

Anyone else think the site was messy and hard to understand? Also, I wonder how it handles TinyURL's since many Twits use the service due to the 180 char limit in twitter.

Sorry, but unless you're @kpbsnews I'll read your feed when I'm good and ready. I'd personally rather see the linking trend decreased instead of increased, but I can see where there is value in knowing what links people consider important enough to notify their followers about while on the go. Even better is to provide feedback on what the followers found valuable as well. I've decided that I'll keep my eye on Tweetmeme for a while before writing them off, but the current interface is a clusterfuck. I sure hope their very next feature is the ability to set a language preference. Still, hashtags FTW.
