New Sponsor: BeDeviant.com Welcomes Twubs!

Back in April, Catalyst West got underway in sunny California. Great speakers, great bands, great atmosphere, great conference. It was all great.

There was only one problem: I wasn’t there.

It wasn’t in the cards (or the budget) for me to be there in person. In my despair, I stumbled upon a website that I kept hearing about, Twubs.com. I’m glad I found it because the site gave me the next-best-thing to being at the conference!

Twubs.com goes by the slogan, “hashtags made useful” and they do just that! Hashtags (or the “#” sign for those unaware of Twitter lingo) make following conversation topics extremely easy and Twubs does a tremendous job of piling all the hashtag fun into one place.

It’s easy: For Catalyst West all I did was find the official hashtag (#catwest) and type it into Twubs:

Then everything being mentioned about Catalyst West pops up onto an easy-to-read display (and the best part is that it auto-refreshes! Streaming content is a must!). You get all the tagged pictures and videos from the event:

And, of course, you get all the tweets you can handle pertaining to your specific hashtag:

Hashtags are a great idea, but only if they’re used properly. Twubs.com does a great job of doing that, of making hastags useful. They’ve also integrated Twitter functionality into the site so you can tweet directly from Twubs if you have something to add to the conversation.

So the next time you want to follow a conference, Twitter TV commentary (I used Twubs during the LOST finale as well), or trending topics, check out Twubs!
