Tweet Crunch

An interesting service has emerged called Plodt, this site will let you tag and categorise you Tweets, from the data gathered will generate a graph based on your recent tags or “plodts” that you make.

Sound good? ok, to start using this service first you will need to follow @Plodt on Twitter, you should then get a dm back from them with your unique plodt url.

Once you have your dm you can start tagging, like the examples above and below you will need to asterisk the tag, with the number being used for either a rating or measurement.

The Shake Shack burger was worth the 83 minute wait. *food 9*
Tough but great run *miles 12* this morning. *mood 8*
Really satisfying *weekend* — wall to wall full of friends, work, more friends.

After a while tagging your tweets you should have built up quite a nice little trail for tracking anything in your life, when you eat, smoke, drink you can use it for whatever, it would maybe generate some interesting results for you.

Plodt have also recently got involved in the Presidential debate, now you can not only talk about Obama and Mccain on Twitter but also give them a rating. Based on your data Plodt creates a live graph showing the latest results, for me a much better way of tracking the debate instead of watching Tweets fly past on the Election Page.

Plodt for me is a very cool service I’ve seem something similar to this over at MIT but not as user friendly. If you want to delve deeper into your tweets then this service is the one for you.
