Is this thing on?

Posted 3 months 1 week ago
So I got the huddlein email that it's gone live. Filled out a few fields and connected my twitter account. Just noticed its suddenly brought in my last 5 or so tweets "54 sec ago" in the overall Recent Activity stream. So are these just created as new posts, new huddles, ...? Anyway, so also not entirely clear at this point what a huddle is (specifically) or what the site is supposed to do. It does not help that I'm on a mobile... So am probably

Was suddenly unable to type anymore in the text above,or delete anything...so anyway, I'd probably help myself by not being on mobile. But the About section doesn't seem to really say much about what I should expect from huddlein either. Help me Obi-wan.

haha couldn't help but laugh at how you closed that! HuddleIn does import your recent tweets. We are still working on filters so only relevant tweets come through however it is still a work in progress. We have used this import function as a little bit of an answer to 'the chicken and the egg' problem, to try to help create more content and build more discussion. We hope that once we have a decent sized community that things will become much clearer. We hope that this will be the place where you can find out what is happening in any particular area of the world. I think you are right, we do need to clarify things a little more in the about page. Thanks for your feedback.

cool, thanks for the feedback. Also noticed below comments boxes you have "No HTML tags allowed". But then follow that with "Allowed HTML tags: <a> <em> etc.." So could probably just remove "No HTML tags allowed", since you make it clear URLs and emails are auto-linked, and you do actually allow some HTML. Look forward to hearing more about what you guys see huddlein becoming.
