A quick nod - via Julien Frisch - to www.europatweets.eu, a nifty website that does a good job of compiling all MEPS twitter feeds.

Like out MEP Twitter feed on the right hand column, this site uses a pipe to collect twitters from MEPs, but also to MEPs, from Candidates to MEPs, and from the general public using the elections hashtag. It’s an interesting resource.

It’s good to see a number of sites popping up that track elected officials as Twitter is not easy to use itself. The US has Twitter Room and Tweet Congress.

To be noted:  “Google and Twitter: Of course they're talking” (April 5, 2009)

15 Fascinating Ways to Track Twitter Trends

Ben Parr at Mashable puts together a guide to tracking twitter trends through Twitter accounts, Web applications, and iPhone apps in 15 Fascinating Ways to Track Twitter Trends. Here’s a sampling of his suggested methods:

“1. Twitter Search: The simplest way to see trends on Twitter is on their official search page. Hot trends on Twitter appear on the search page and on the Twitter homepage, and clicking any will bring up a feed of the public conversation.

2. Twist: For those who are visual, Twist provides a graphical interface to see trends and keywords on Twitter. It not only lists out the hot trends over the last few hours, days, and week, but it provides embeddable charts and the ability to compare trends.

3. Monitter: Monitter is one of the best ways to track trends in real-time. Type in keywords and it will automatically update with the most recent tweets containing those terms. Add or remove columns to give you the right amount of information.”
