CrowdLens Features

Globally Saved State

Crowdlens keeps track of your last read tweets in all categories. This allows you to login from any computer, and pick up right where you left off. Crowdlens will show you your oldest unread tweets first. This allows you to easily follow conversations as they occurred.

Automatic Updates

Crowdlens will automatically look for new tweets every minute. This means you no longer have to manually refresh the window to see what is new. There is a count next to each tab (home, mentions, direct messages) that will update to let you know how many tweets you have of each. This prevents you from having to load a new page, only to see that there is nothing there for you to read.

Transparent Read Tracking

As tweets scroll off the top of the page, they are automatically marked as read. This allows CrowdLens to keep track of where you are at, without forcing you to manually mark tweets as read.

Keyboard Shortcuts

CrowdLens provides many shortcuts to make keeping up with tweets even easier:

J

Scroll to next tweet

K

Scroll to previous tweet

R

Manually check for new tweets (happens every 60 seconds otherwise)

C

Clear read tweets from screen

S

Open 'Send Tweet' dialog

Inline Previews

CrowdLens will automatically display thumbnail previews for all yfrog and twitpic images. There are many more inline previews that are planned. If you would like to request any in particular feel free to Contact Us
