@eventtrack meet Jaiku

@eventtrack my little side project that's been keeping me busy just hit a new level. @eventtrack so far has been able to track the various social objects such as photos, videos, blogs, links and most importantly the conversations around a single tag, a subject. The conversations as well as the events have been generated and gathered from Twitter to date but some users just aren't on Twitter and thus I was missing their collective input. To help overcome this I've now integrated the next of the micro-blogging platforms - Jaiku.


Jaiku - type your new Jaiku here

  • Jaiku Join the eventtrack channel at eventtrack
  • Jaiku send a message from your stream to #eventtrack @xxxx message where xxxxx is the keyword for your event e.g. #eventtrack @defrag this is a a test
  • Jaiku from the eventtrack channel itself send a message (or comment) '@xxxxx message' where xxxxx is the keyword for your event e.g. @defrag this is a a test
  • Here To follow everyone in the search enter xxxxx where xxxxx is the keyword for your event e.g. 'defrag'


(Via @eventtrack - tracking people in the moment.)



Of course as soon as I announced this in Twitter the following little conversation took place.

for Jaiku you can use the eventtrack channel and @ keyword for each entry or from your own channel # channel @ keyword message

@ccmehil if you start in jaiku, do your twitter folowers see you started an event?







As you can see I took things as far as I could to ensure that regardless of the platform people can take part! @eventtrack is all about enabling without making you change!
