We have been working on a few little Twitter Tools as we have come to call them. We have currently released 3, and there are no plans for new ones, just upgrade to the current ones. We are contemplating making a simple way to just tweet a time to SwimLink and it will automatically add the time to your SwimLink account.
TimeConverter is a quick way to convert times from pool type to other pool types. Just tweet the pool type, event, and time and TimeConverter will return the converted times within a minute. This is a great tool when you need a quick conversion and you don’t necessarily want to add it to SwimLink or use another more cumbersome service. Flight Info is another pretty simple service.
Tweet the flight, fltinfo and within about a minute it will return the info for the flight. If it has multiple segments it will just have a brief overview of the segments, and you can reply with the specific segment and it will return more detailed info. You can also just tweet the flight number with the segment you want at the end, and it will return the specific info, this will always happen when a flight just has one segment.
Lastly, we have recently released fltprices, which is a quick way to get the best price for a trip between two airports. It just takes a tweet with the airports (IATA) and the dates of travel, and within a minute or two Flight Prices will reply with the best result. We are working to add a website where you can see more than just the best result, and you will be able to choose other factors, like airline, time, etc.
