Design Aviary feather
Over the last few weeks we've developed an in-house tool that we think is good enough to share with the design community. It's called Design Aviary and it allows anyone, Twitter account or not, to listen in on the most recent conversations happening on Twitter in a targeted manner. It covers a variety of topics from design inspiration to jobs & gigs to the pain of utter design fail... And it does so in a beautiful way.
If you have a Twitter account, Design Aviary is a great way to find people you want to follow. If you don't have an account it's a great way to tap into Twitter, one of the most vocal communities of first-adopters in the world, and listen to what's being said about design. It's a good resource to keep up with the cutting edge design ideas and trends that have been appearing on Twitter hours, if not days, before the bloggers start reporting on it. (Not to mention mainstream media.)
There is still some noise mixed in with the signal, but it's several orders of magnitude less than if you were just surfing Twitter looking for people talking design. Leave us some feedback in the comments. If this inspires anyone or helps someone find a job, let us know. (It'll make all the work that went into this worth it.) Enjoy!
