Tweet Search Speeddial Extension

, , , , , ,

Tweet Search
The Tweet Search extension lets you keep track of tweets in your speeddial panel. Ideal for live events, TV shows or your own mentions.

Enter your search terms in the preferences panel, and the extension will display a stream of Tweets mentioning your chosen terms. Tweets refresh every minute, with new tweets dynamically appearing in the speeddial panel. Clicking the panel will bring you to Twitter.com's page showing the search results.

You can choose to monitor Tweets that mention a username, hashtag, or any other text - just enter your chosen search term in the preferences panel.

Formerly 'Tweet Mentions' 1.3.2
- Name and description change, better reflects functionality
- New look and feel for options panel
- New options - show/hide avatar, change font size

SUPPORT FOR TWEET SEARCH EXTENSION
------------------------------------

On installation, clicking the panel will direct you to set up your preferences. On this page you can choose a username, hashtag or other text. The extension will then display tweets that mention your choice. After initial set up, your preferences can be changed at any time by right-clicking on the extension and choosing 'Preferences'.

The Twitter API has a limit, so occasionally the extension may reach the limit. In this case the extension will display a message, and try to refresh again shortly.

When I got a new mention after my last seen speed dial, could it possible change background color to a diffrent color.

It's definitely something I'd like to include in the extension - I'm looking into the possibility. I'll post an update if I'm able to do this smile

Could you add your extension link into the post?

Also this one may be nice, too.
- In popup page show full list of mentions.
- Ability to remove avatars, names or nicknames.
- Optional font size and font type may be good.

And late multiple account support may be nice. For now multiple install is a solution.

Bug report: I installed extension 12.01.1520 in Turkish. And all languages list is in Arabic.
