Mideast Tweets Beta Launch – Tweeple, Tweets, Fun

mideastweets_logo_medeastMideast Tweets helps you discover how Twitter is being used in the Middle East and North Africa, and what is being discussed in this region. It was released now in BETA version; however, it will have several functionalities to be introduced in the coming few weeks.

You can conduct a search by country, and choose to see tweets in the form of a list by clicking on “See All” at the bottom of each pop-up. But definitely the results are imperfect sometimes same as twitter imperfections services itself.

Mideast Tweets started out being a project for the personal use of Mideast Youth members to keep up with what was being said in the Twittersphere, since they were intrigued by how and where others in the region are using it, but they collectively found it difficult for them to discover new regional Twitter users, hence this project. But they liked it so much and decided to improve it and make it available to the public.

Suggestions for improvement are always welcome by Mideast Youth team. Volunteer developers who can help build upon this are even more welcome!

I hope that you will find this tool useful and to your enjoyment.
