That's a niche site, how could you broaden it out, though?

Another interesting idea, would be for submitters to authenticate with such a site, and have it check their "retweets_of_me" "retweeted_by_me" and "retweeted_to_me" aiming to surface what's important.

Tweetmeme has a comedy channel, I wonder how they get their tweets. http://tweetmeme.com/category/comedy - but the tweet is not initially shown, only the link and its extracted content.

Is there a twitter site aimed at crafting the best possible lists in certain categories?




The idea of counting favourites or retweets is actually the idea I was working against. I've always figured that makes it easy to find already easy to find tweets. To say nothing of "retweeted alot" != "funny", even if its from a comedian feed.

I would assume tweetmeme flag comedian feeds and counts retweet links.

I believe there are list sites, but the focus is on the feed rather than the tweet.
