www.MyTweetAlerts.com is like Google Alerts but for Twitter. You can receive alerts and get emails when someone tweets about some topics and the tweet has more than X likes or Y retweets. You can also get emails if someone tweets about some keywords and he/she has more than X followers. So it is really useful to find tweets that can go viral.

I have a Tweetdeck with search for my keywords active. Will I get different results or do you use the same API?

@agilek Hi Mike. We are using the same API but with MyTweetAlerts.com you can better control all the email alerts. You can get emails if someone tweets about some topic AND he has more than X followers. Or Tweets about some topics that have more than Y likes or Y retweets - so you can spot tweets that might go viral.
As far as I know, TweetDeck is not using the advanced features of the Twitter API.
p.s. AllPrototypes.com is a great idea - I am going to check out the website.

@jerome_vbm "Do you plan to add a (Followers/following) ratio?"
How would you use this when creating alerts - can you give one example?
Report
@hakon This ratio is for me a good way to get rid of some shitty bot tweets.
If someone has (Followers/followings) > 10, for instance, you have more chance to find out a good information in the tweet, because people are following this account for content, and not for follow-back (in some case)

Why do you want access to our Twitter account?

@fdewever Hi Fanuel. We have to use your Twitter account to access the Twitter API. If we would use our account then we would hit the Twitter API limits. Let me know if you have any other questions or need help setting up the alerts.
@fdewever I suspect they require access to your Twitter account because one of the ways Twitter limits connections. From the Twitter Streaming API docs:
"Each account may create only one standing connection to the public endpoints, and connecting to a public stream more than once with the same account credentials will cause the oldest connection to be disconnected."
So in order to have streams and filters for each user, you have to have a particular account connected to it.
Hi @hakonagustsson what was the driving force behind building MyTweetAlerts?

@hakonagustsson Hi @ems_hodge I was working as a social media manager and it was difficult to keep up with (read) all the Tweets related to this company. So I needed some system to find the most important tweets. I didn't find any solution online so I created www.MyTweetAlerts.com.

I like it. Just created an alert to test it. I'll let you know how it goes.

@rsencion Great - thanks. I appreciate all feedback - good and bad. Let me know if you want me to help you set up your alerts. It is common problem that people create too broad alerts.
