Tweeb: Twitter Analytics at a Glance. Review & Giveaway

Always curious as to my status of fame and glory on Twitter, Tweeb has given me a little bit of insight on just how spectacularly average I am. Just how many of my quality followers are clicking my links? What bastards are unfollowing me this week? And what of my snarky material is being re-tweeted for all to revel in? Tweeb puts a portable analytics engine right in my pocket.

Tweeb Stats

Tweeb Stats

Tweeb takes a peek at our Twitter profile, takes a snapshot, and crushes through the numbers before spitting out valuable data. In the initial summary tab, you can get an excellent glimpse at just how annoying you are on a scale of daily and average tweets, followers gained and lost, whether you’re ‘buzz’ worthy, and how many times were those puppy links actually clicked. Visually the information is laid out in a clean, list-style format that enables users to jump into one of the subsequent tabs. However, I can’t promise you positive results: you’re on your own in the war against depressing statistics (it’s not Tweeb’s fault that you didn’t gain any followers this week).

Tweeb Me

I average 12.1 tweets for day, and I know this because of Tweeb’s excellent ‘Me’ view. That’s right folks, it’s all about ‘Me.’ You can view recent tweets, who you’re following, and even use the nifty shortcut to Tweet from your favorite iPhone client (Tweetie is the default – this should be updated to Twitter for iPhone).

Tweeb Followers

My +275 followers are pretty amazing too; it’s nice to see that most of you are actual human beings and not some Twitter spam bot. Right? Anyway, unfollowers beware: it’s real easy to see who joined the party and who ditched you for that other awesome Twitter follower. Don’t make me put you on my block list.

Tweeb Retweets

Tweeb Retweets

If you’re the talk of the town, you can catch all the latest Buzz by seeing where you were mentioned and who retweeted your most famous material. I didn’t find mentions particularly useful in that it’s no different from what a standard Twitter client provides, but it is convenient having it with your retweets. Retweets allow you to scroll through various dates and get a glimpse on who takes value in what you have to say.

Tweeb Clicks

Lastly, you can check out how many people have clicked on that link you posted. Short-URL paths are also revealed within this data (if possible), so that’s quite nice. If your link was shared by someone else, or you’ve retweeted a link, you’ll get information about how many people clicked on yours compared to everyone else.

Tweeb Info Summary

Tweeb Info Summary

If you’re ever confused or curious about what certain tabs display, there’s an information button at the top of each page that gives you some surprisingly detailed information. But I wish the bottom of that little ‘i’ wasn’t cut off - that would add some polish to the titles. Otherwise, Tweeb is visually interesting with its subtle hues of blue and resistance to traditional list views.

For a buck ninety-nine in the iTunes App Store, Tweeb can be quite the useful companion for any proclaimed Twitter geek. So useful in fact, we’re giving away three copies to some devout fanatics in need of this sort of thing. Check out our giveaway below for more information on how you can gain some valuable insight.
