It would be amazing if iTunes could post playlists automatically to Twitter.

Yeah -- I had LastFM scrobbling and everything but couldn't figure out how to get it to do that.
― Naive Teen Idol, Saturday, 5 February 2011 02:47 (fourteen years ago)
Scrobbler to twitter? haha doesn't happen. I thought you were aiming just to publicize your playlists/what you were listening to.
― The previous message has been brought to you by (kelpolaris), Saturday, 5 February 2011 02:59 (fourteen years ago)
Scrobbler to twitter? haha doesn't happen.
It almost doesn't make sense that LastFM wouldn't have a Twitter feature that, at a bare minimum, posts a link to your Recently Played music page.
― Naive Teen Idol, Saturday, 5 February 2011 04:33 (fourteen years ago)
I guess? Twitter is more about what activity you're doing, not what media you're consuming. I mean you could always say you're reading this or listening to that but I don't think the devs ever though it necessitated original software in order to do so.
Also, esp. here, people listen to music so incessantly that it could only be wholly annoying to have some friend who alerted you every time he decided to listen to that new Kanye album or whatever. btw there's a twitter thread in ILE.

if would be the worst thing if iTunes could post playlists automatically to Twitter.
it's bad enough getting ppl's end-of-week last.fm charts and foursquare logins.

@DavidM2000AD
I don't mind the weekly last.fm tweets at all, but, yeah, constant playlist updates would be a bit much.

i'm kinda into keeping my ilx and twitter deals separated tho, so shhh
users of twitter: how much do you argue, on twitter? is it worth it? either personally, or in some larger sense.
i'm tempted to ahem engage w/ people all the time but generally keep the urge suppressed. do you?
― goole, Wednesday, 24 September 2014 19:54 (ten years ago)
It's about as worth it as it is to argue on ilx. So not worth it at all.

Does anyone here find Twitter useful beyond marketing and following some comedians? I'm not trolling, really wondering about its uses.
― Gerald McBoing-Boing, Saturday, 7 February 2015 21:32 (ten years ago)
I dont follow any comedians, depends what you mean by marketing, i follow thing like the local public transport company, markets and local shops, and a lot of tech/dev related stuff, and for new mixes, though all that could count as marketing. I follow certain people who talk about the above things, which gives me more of a sense of context about which i might take a bit more of a look at. I think some of this works unconsciously/incrementally - i might see something new come out but not look at it, but it might crop up again from non-connected people and I check it out then instead of the first time
I dont get into twitter conversations or arguments, but i find it very useful
― anvil, Saturday, 7 February 2015 21:41 (ten years ago)
The girl next door works in a school, and when they had a snow day, the school announced it via twitter, which of course makes perfect sense but somehow i was still a bit suprrised
― anvil, Saturday, 7 February 2015 21:42 (ten years ago)
lots of music related tweets
― curmudgeon, Saturday, 7 February 2015 22:04 (ten years ago)
Useful related music tweets? Like tour info or new releases?
― Gerald McBoing-Boing, Saturday, 7 February 2015 22:07 (ten years ago)
Yes...details and photos from people who have gone to concerts I was interested in; critics listing fave music or linking to music; live-blogging of awards shows; twitter battles
― curmudgeon, Saturday, 7 February 2015 22:18 (ten years ago)

― calstars, Sunday, 8 February 2015 00:08 (ten years ago)
I hope you've turned off their retweets.
― Tay-Tay Brooklynpants (Murgatroid), Sunday, 8 February 2015 00:11 (ten years ago)
I like learning what quotidian stuff is troubling my friends, or pleasing them, or what friends are thinking in general. This falls under entertainment, but it's also indirectly useful or at least illuminating. I like getting friends' opinions offered in a space the size of which excludes blowhards. I don't follow musicians unless they tweet about non-music-related matters; otherwise I just don't care enough. I would probably follow Peggy Lee if she were still alive..
It's good to follow local bars to learn about drink specials or when open mic nights are (to avoid them).

― Josefa, Sunday, 8 February 2015 04:33 (ten years ago)
I'd say 99% of the people I follow are musicians/labels in order to keep up with new releases and that kind of stuff. The rest is non-music news outlets for the most part.

It's good for planning and following political organizing. I've gotten tips on good web articles from it.
― SCOTTISH PEOPLE ONLY (I M Losted), Sunday, 8 February 2015 12:27 (ten years ago)
I follow:
-bars-people who tweet about:--beer--running--transit issues--science/tech stuff--local news and politics
Primarily an information source, but a lot of conversation back and forth too, especially with local people that I've met on there. It's really my ideal social network. So they'll probably change it and ruin it soon.
― Jeff, Sunday, 8 February 2015 15:06 (ten years ago)
Yeah, I like the back-and-forths with people I've met irl but am unlikely to see very often, or with low-level celebrities who respond to my replies. It's often rewarding to follow brainy types like authors, philosophers, pop science personalities
You will learn pretty fast that the two types of tweeters are those who tweet about the outside world and those who tweet 100% about themselves
― Josefa, Sunday, 8 February 2015 17:04 (ten years ago)
I'm likely to tweet about music I'm listening to or am into, or audio gear I got. No one needs to read about my dinner, kids activities or my liberal politics.
― Gerald McBoing-Boing, Sunday, 8 February 2015 17:21 (ten years ago)
Don't tweet about your pets, is what I would recommend
