Tweetmygaming tracks gaming conversations on Twitter

By on June 23, 2009

Powered by GamerDNA, tweetmygaming.com shows you what games are *currently* being talked about on Twitter.

The technology monitors the stream in real-time. Anytime it recognises a gaming title, it clocks it up in the counter to measure the buzz about that game on Twitter.

In the last 21 days, it has clocked up over 425,000 tweets about games. The most popular games are surprisingly mainstream (The Sims 3, World of Warcraft, Wii Fit), given that Twitter is still a new technology.

On the other hand, Second Life makes it into the Top 10.

Tweetmygaming lets PRs track the buzz about games they are promoting. I’m still trying to work out if it is useful in any other way.
