Getting rid of the updates in Tweetdeck

Here is a quick tutorial on how to turn off those annoying tweet notifications that come with Tweetdeck.

1. Open Tweetdeck
2. Click on the little wrench icon in the top right corner 
3. Then the following box will open, and you will need to click on the notifications tab.

The red and blue arrows signify the two visuals that pop up on your screen and you can turn off one or both.  I have both of mine turned off because they just get too distracting for me.

The yellow arrow highlights the volume bar for the notification sound.  I have it turned all the way down, which may be a good alternative to turning the notifications off altogether.

Qwitter: Checking your unfollowers on twitter.

Have you ever wondered if someone followed you on twitter only so you would follow them back and then left you as soon as you did?  I know I have thought that very thing happened to me a few times.  Now you can tell who is actually doing that.

You can use Qwitter. Qwitter is the FREE add-on that tells you exactly who left you in any given week.

Just go to this website http://useqwitter.com/ and sign up using your twitter username and email.  Just make sure you confirm your email account, and you will be sent a weekly update of those unfollowers you always wondered about.

I personally like the idea of knowing who is real and who is not.  What about you?  Please leave a comment and let me know what you think.
