TwitterVenn

Ever wanted to compare terms most used in Twitter? Here’s one cool application on the net: TwitterVenn.

Simply enter three words you want to search, separated by commas, and click Search. The result is a Venn diagram showing you the frequency of the search term you used, in stand-alone or in conjunction/combination with the other terms you used. It also shows the words associated with the term you searched for.

In the sample screen, Wordpress clearly is the most popular among Blogger and Tumblr in Twitter posts with 30954 Tweets per day.

TwitterVenn is the brainchild of Jeff Clark, the creator of Neoformix.

Check out his other Twitter data visualization tools: TwitArcs, Twitter Spectrum and Twitter StreamGraphs.

UberVU: Web-wide community metrics and analytics

Ever felt the need to track topics, conversations, and what people say about a topic or site? Say you want to know everything about the latest and hottest celebrity news about Paramore, but don’t want to be restricted with the sites that you usually visit. This tool is for you.

UberVU allows you to find and follow conversations across the web with ease. It shows you a bigger picture about the topic you are looking for by basing the “interesting-ness” on the conversations that surround the topic. The theory is that a story is more interesting when there are people who talk about it.

Searching for a keyword or URL on the box gives you the results on a thread from the following channels:

• Wordpress,
• Blogger,
• Youtube,
• Flickr,
• Picasa,
• Disqus,
• IntenseDebate,
• MovableType,
• Typepad,
• Twitter,
• Digg, etc.

You can also subscribe and keep track of the updates on the conversations simply by signing up for an account.

This tool is particularly useful for analytics and for monitoring the popularity of a topic. Site owners can utilize this tool better by adding a widget on their pages.

KnowEm

With millions and millions of users on the Internet, it’s now getting harder to choose a unique user name, especially a unique one across multiple sites.

KnowEm is an online tool that allows individuals and businesses check their user names across 300+ social media sites, spanning various topics: blogging, travel, photo storage, and health among others.

Checking for availability is free. But the service for signing up isn’t:

• $99 Individual Plan
• $349 Business Plan
• $649 Enterprise Plan.

It’s actually a pretty expensive service, if you want to avail. If I were you though, I’d just use this tool to check availability across sites, and sign up manually, especially if it’s just a few number of sites to sign up for. But if you’re willing to pay for automatic sign-up for $99 for 150 sites, then, visit their site.

Color Scheme Designer

Creating web designs from scratch can be really tricky, especially if you don’t have a ready set of colors to choose from. I, for one, usually rely on my mental image of the final output and simply work from there, experimenting on the exact color along the way. This can sometimes be tedious.

Here’s a free online tool that can help you. It’s called Color Scheme Designer. Try it out. Just rotate the circle to your desired initial color and select from the following options:

• Mono,
• Complement,
• Triad,
• Tetrad,
• Analogic, and
• Accented Analogic.

Extra: COLOURLovers

If you’re not into experimenting and creating color schemes on your own, COLOURLovers is a site where you can find user-submitted color palettes for various uses, whether for ad campaigns, web designs, etc. The site showcases colors, palettes and patterns, with a rating system for following trends.

Spectives: Follow your Favorites Differently

Have a lots of sites to follow? Tired of using Feed readers?

Then this tool can change how you follow your favorite sites, in a manner you may not have thought of before – using images with captions to summarize the recent entries of the sites you are following. Spectives allows you to have your own customized internet reading space with tabs, collections, just like having a newspaper with various news (site entries) on many pages (tabs).

You don’t need to sign up for an account to use this tool. You can scour through the existing collections and numerous tags to start surfing and reading. But if you start to feel the need to make your own custom selections and your preferences saved, it would be best to sign up for an account.

If you happen not to like how it’s organized, you can also get them as RSS feeds.

How it Works

Basically, Spectives captures the images on the posts on the sites you follow. These are organized in a collection, just like in the image above. Once a site updates, the images are automatically updated as well. View the video by the Spectives Team below, courtesy of Vimeo.
