Excellent Live Coverage of ETech

I’m not at ETech this year, but I’m following my colleague SarahM’s coverage on Twitter.

Right now, I don’t have Twitter set up to send me notifications via SMS, because that would probably drive me nuts (I use text messages for GCal and Remember the Milk notifications so SMS is basically my todo list). At Brian Sawyer’s suggestion, I’m using Twitteriffic, which is very nice (they have a beta of version 2.0 out that’s worth trying out).

    I’m following Sarah’s coverage too and attending ETech vicariously through it.

    Thanks for the heads-up on v2.0. Perhaps the upgrade will solve some of the sluggishness I’ve been getting from Twitteriffic lately. Twitter has its on delays, of course, but I’m getting more frequent and consistent updates from the Web than from Twitteriffic lately.

    I’m also finding TwitThis (http://tinyurl.com/3b5qnw) helpful. You might want to check it out.

    Update: yes, Twitteriffic is much better in v2 in many ways, not the least of which is an option to automatically log in on startup, which I thought was an obvious oversight in v1.
