Inference

One of the most useful and yet easily overlooked features of Cadmus is Twitter Conversations. Twitter is great for putting out simple status updates but it is also a great tool for connecting with one another. However if you are seeing a whole bunch of @replies in your stream it gives you the feeling that you are missing the whole picture. For example, if you see a couple of your friends carrying out a conversation in your stream; you would need to scroll all the way back to see the starting point of that conversation to get a feel for what they are talking about.

Cadmus groups these @replies together as comments and links them to the update that started it all. Also, our algorithm moves up such conversations in your stream. So not only do we group them together but we also bring them to you so you don’t miss out on them. Below is a great example of Twitter conversations from my stream. Through all the other services I would just see a string of these posts that would needlessly be crowding my stream.

We don’t just stop there, we make it easy for you to participate in these conversations as well. By adding a comment to this conversation we do a @reply to the original post. If you click the reply buttons right next to the comment, it sends a @reply to that post.

There is another neat little effect this feature has on my usage. Sometimes, my friends get caught up in a conversation that I am not really interested in. This means that they tend to fill up my stream with stuff that I don’t really care about. With Cadmus you would not see the back and forth chatter over and over in your stream. It would be neatly tucked away in one cluster of posts.

This is just another way Cadmus helps you get the most out of your social media services without using up all of your time.

Over the last week Cadmus has gotten great reviews from blogs all over the world! We added a new section to highlight some of these reviews. We also have a full list over at OneForty.

I would like to give a huge thanks to everybody that took the time to review our service. And to all our new users; stay tuned we’ve got some great stuff lined up for you.

Description

Cadmus & ViewPoint needed social media icons and as we all know designing social media icons is the designer’s equivalent of the Hello World program. So I spent some time making these 24px icons. They are free to use; just link back to me. I’ll be updating them and adding more to the pack as I go along. So save the link to this post and check back once in a while or just follow me for updates. Also, if you have any requests or feedback about them, please don’t hesitate to let me know. I consider myself fairly novice when it comes to icon design so feedback is greatly appreciated.

Inspired by @rogieking’s drop dead gorgeous Social Media Network Icons.

We had a chance to demo Cadmus @ DCT #24. And here are the videos from it.

First the demo itself.

And the Q&A session after.

Huge thanks to @geoffreywiseman for editing and putting these up. You can find his post here.
