ADVERTISEMENTS

Captain's Log Stardate -313673.72

My friend Tonyo started this #SentiSabado Twitter craze last week. The rules are simple, tweet something nostalgic (90s, 80s, 70s, etc.) and place the hashtag #SentiSabado. The end result? RIOT!

Last week, we learned that Chuckie Dreyfus can literally represent #SentiSabado (hi kuya ^_^) and how ABS-CBN reporter Ryan Chua remembered how Pia Hontiveros was strapped at a flagpole at PAGASA while reporting in the middle of a storm. He was in Grade 2, while another ABS-CBN reporter, Jeff Canoy, was in Grade 5 they recalled.

Tonyo's organizing another #SentiSabado this week with the theme, "Our wonder years: Flashback to elementary/grade school".

Wanna join? You can use Twitter's default web interface and create a search for #sentisabado. Or you can download two of these cool desktop applications: Tweetdeck and Seesmic. Both of these applications streams updates in real time. Meaning, you don't have to hit refresh or reload everytime a new updates comes in.

Tweetdeck is the desktop client that introduced columns to organize the home timeline, mentions, private messages, and search. Download the User Stream Preview of Tweetdeck here to get realtime updates of the #sentisabado hashtag.

Once installed, add a new search column for the hashtag #sentisabado. Tweetdeck runs on Adobe Air.

If you're a Windows user, you can try Seesmic Desktop 2 Beta. This is the one I'm using right now and it also features real time updates. Just like Tweetdeck, you can add a column for searchterm #sentisabado. Seesmic Desktop 2 Beta runs on Microsoft Silverlight and is currently available only to Windows users. Mac version coming up soon according to the developers. Download Seesmic Desktop 2 Beta here.

BTW, I was in Grade 6 while Pia was strapped to that PAGASA flagpole. :P

UPDATE: September 10, 2010

Tonyo asked me, "How about those people using public computers?". So, here are some alternative Twitter clients that can be used on a browser.

Hootsuite and Brizzly are basically the same as Tweetdeck and Seesmic, but instead of installing an app, they both run on your browsers. Seesmic also has a Web version.

You can also try Tweetchat to monitor the #sentisabado hashtag. I won't elaborate on how to use these internet apps as they are all self explanatory. (actually, I'm just lazy) :D
