STL Tweets
Capturing True Social Conversations for St. Louis
When people are making something happen, they want you to know about it. For nearly two years, STLTweets.com has been the destination to see the unbelievably wide range of culture, events and projects that the city of St. Louis is passionate about. There’s never been a better way to show n’ tell than Twitter, and STL Tweets provides the stage for the engaged to share their stories.
Powered by Buzz Radius, our Twitter aggregation and curation engine, STL Tweets is a dynamic resource for tracking the chatter, the most interesting links and the truly influential players using Twitter in St. Louis. Twitter users and content are curated into several categories so whether a visitor is searching for politics, sports or events, or just wants a glimpse of what’s happening around the local water cooler, STL Tweets has the answer.
STL Tweets knows who’s who in the world of St. Louis Twitter. This is what really separates it from any other attempts at providing local trending. Real people connected to specific areas of interest curate lists of Twitter accounts that have been identified as providing a concentrated source of relevant information.
We don’t stop there. STL Tweets places a weight on links shared via Twitter. They are tallied as they show up in the locally-originating Twitter stream. As people tweet a link to a particular story, site, photo or video, that link rises to the top of the STL Tweets Links lens, providing a way to separate the most interesting content from the background noise.
At Infuz, we’re passionate about the web. We love Twitter, but it is in danger of becoming too big for it’s own good. As a way to keep it from collapsing under its own success, we’ve developed tools like Buzz Radius and websites like STL Tweets. What began as an almost personal project just to give us a way to separate the best from the rest has grown into an amazing catalyst spotlighting the who, what and why that makes our city go. We’re as proud as any parent as we watch people continue to discover it, participate in it, and make it a daily visit to discover the real-time city of St. Louis.
