[Web4lib] Twitter with CoverItlLive for conferences

[Kathryn Greenhill]

I integrate twitter feeds with CoverItLive during conferences.

CoverItLive allows you to feed in all tweets from up to 10 nominated accounts plus up to ten hashtags.

With CoverItLive you get an embeddable window that updates in real time and archives the material. Anyone can view it, there is no need to refresh and anyone can add questions to the feed from their PC.

An example is here at the bottom of the post from Library Camp Kansas. I fed in my twitter login @libsmatter plus Bobbie Newman's ( @librarianbyday ) and the unconference hashtag on twitter #libcampks.
