Search on something then click the 'Activate' button. Then when someone mentions that fragment in a tweet you'll get it in your main window with a looking glass icon :) http://ayende.com/4182/don-t-throw-the-information-at-me-i-expect-you-to-work-at-it#comment15http://ayende.com/4182/don-t-throw-the-information-at-me-i-expect-you-to-work-at-it#comment15Wed, 09 Sep 2009 09:56:09 GMTDid you try Seesmic desktop or Mixero ? I tried tweetdeck, seesmic and mixero. What I like specially about mixero is that it saves your groups and contexts serverside. Great for home/business/notebook use. http://ayende.com/4182/don-t-throw-the-information-at-me-i-expect-you-to-work-at-it#comment14http://ayende.com/4182/don-t-throw-the-information-at-me-i-expect-you-to-work-at-it#comment14Wed, 09 Sep 2009 07:26:39 GMTTry Blu: [http://www.thirteen23.com/experiences/desktop/blu/](http://www.thirteen23.com/experiences/desktop/blu/) I love it. http://ayende.com/4182/don-t-throw-the-information-at-me-i-expect-you-to-work-at-it#comment13http://ayende.com/4182/don-t-throw-the-information-at-me-i-expect-you-to-work-at-it#comment13Wed, 09 Sep 2009 06:55:19 GMTTwhirl lets you subscribe to searches, from the search tab. http://ayende.com/4182/don-t-throw-the-information-at-me-i-expect-you-to-work-at-it#comment12http://ayende.com/4182/don-t-throw-the-information-at-me-i-expect-you-to-work-at-it#comment12Wed, 09 Sep 2009 04:51:10 GMTTweetDeck (or TwitterDeck or PoopDeck or whatever we're calling it) has a killer feature you should use: the one-two punch of "mark all tweets as seen" + "clear all seen tweets". Unfortunately clearing only clears one column at a time, and every time you reload PoopDeckPro(sp?) it reloads all your seen tweets...despite all these quirks, it's awesome. Not to overstate its importance, but it will change your life. Footnote: Twhirl has the "clear all tweets" feature, albeit an appropriately simpler version. http://ayende.com/4182/don-t-throw-the-information-at-me-i-expect-you-to-work-at-it#comment11http://ayende.com/4182/don-t-throw-the-information-at-me-i-expect-you-to-work-at-it#comment11Wed, 09 Sep 2009 01:21:11 GMTI like having replies separate because I'm more assured to not miss it. I may miss some tweets in a tidal wave of tweets, but less likely to on TweetDeck because of that extra column. Same goes for DMs but since they go to my email & phone I wouldn't miss them. Theoretically I could drop the DM column http://ayende.com/4182/don-t-throw-the-information-at-me-i-expect-you-to-work-at-it#comment10http://ayende.com/4182/don-t-throw-the-information-at-me-i-expect-you-to-work-at-it#comment10Wed, 09 Sep 2009 00:38:57 GMTDid you try seesmic at [http://seesmic.com/?](http://seesmic.com/?) You have a one column view or multiple columns. Time comes up as *m ago.
