FlashTweet the Best of the Worst \ AUG 09’s That’s #$%!@in Funny WINNER
What could be better than Twitter on Remote Control? From FlashTweet’s website:
“FlashTweet is a mass follow tool that simplifies the process of adding your twitter friends. You can add multiple Twitter accounts to your profile, discover who you are following that is following you back, mass follow users based on search terms, unfollow multiple friends at once, schedule tweets in advance to run throughout the week, insert RSS feeds that will automatically tweet the title and link of your blog or another site.”
I’m sure a mass follow tool is what many scammers and pornsters are looking for to help the flood the Twittersphere with more mindless crap. Oh boy.
To all of you Auto-DMers, Auto-Followers, Auto-Tweeters… GET REAL.
Here’s the beauty and the madness of the ignoble FlashTweet. Enjoy the ensuing comments The Joker certainly salutes their ignorance:
if you're looking for a mass follow tool - UFM please!
If you too want to add hundreds of followers overnight, this might be the tool for you.
You’ll see. After you DO Twitter for a bit, you’ll either find the value in the conversation or you won’t. But which ever way you go, please don’t AUTOMATE anything.
Congratulations to FlashTweet. The worst of the best for August 2009. You are the That’s #$%!@in Funny LOSER WINNER. (If you go, please tell them we revile them. It’s nothing personal boys, we merely despise what you’ve created.)

Hey – thanks for the blog post!! We loved it! =)
FlashTweet can actually be quite useful… For instance, if you have a blog called TwitterJoker.com and you have a Twitter account to go with your blog… instead of manually tweeting every new blog post to your twitter account by copying and pasting, you can insert the TwitterJoker.com RSS feed into FlashTweet and have it do it automatically for you!! Check that out… saves you time and money.
Another useful feature – Say you want to follow everyone who discusses TwitterJoker.com on Twitter… Well now you can! Just go to the Mass Follow section and type in ‘TwitterJoker’ under the mass follow by search term. Then follow everyone who talks about your blog… This is a great way to connect with your community!
I think we will write a book on how to effectively & successfully use FlashTweet with Twitter. Thanks for the idea!
Please send us an email at info@flashtweet.com if you would like to try flashtweet for free!
Well done FlashTweet boys! Everything you mention is so WRONG it’s funny. If you need help on that book thingy, let me know, there are 1,000 monkeys looking for work about now.
If it is “wrong” than why have we’ve successfully started and managed several of our clients accounts with FlashTweet and have drove real business through Twitter.
Want to see the case studies? We would love to show you! In fact, I think we will insert them in our book. =)
Touché!
Yes, please show me, show the world, the wonderful world of Twitter stuffing, Twitter spamming, mass-follow magic. I’m sure you have lots of fans. Probably a hundred or so following me perhaps. At least until they Auto-DM me that is.
Haha – your a joker! =)
No really… Please I’d love to see the case studies. Really. Show it.
We have used FlashTweet for a Nissan dealership located in New York. Since opening the account 3 months ago, they have sold/leased 3 cars via Twitter, have 500 followers who interact with the dealership frequently.
This is all due to them following everyone who discusses ‘nissan’ on Twitter.
There is one case study… You want more?
I guess the jokes on you TwitterJoker? ;)
The joke is always on me, but you ARE the joke. So if Dell sells 2 million dollars firing off deals to twitter followers does that make it good for everyone? Does a Nissan dealership selling 3 cars over the web constitute Twitter success or online success? Is spamming ever justified?
I wish you a flash in the pan as you incinerate. I wish you blackhat listings on Twitter’s APIs. (Biz iz a personal friend of a friend.) I wish you shorten your url into a black dot and never be heard from again. But if wishes where twitter followers… If horses were businesses… If clunkers sold and then crushed themselves. What a wonderful world it would be.
TwitterJoker – It seems FlashTweet doesn’t offer an auto-follow feature… I am confused?
Flashtweet was working until recently when they added features and started to charge a monthly fee. I subscribed to their service so I could continue to use it. Since then there have been numerous errors and bugs and their service is useless to me. I finally got them to respond to my emails (apparently the contact us form on their site does not reach anyone). Two people got back to me and basically told me it was my fault. I offered to help to help diagnose the error messages their site was showing on their pages but they do not get back to me. At this point all Flashtweet seems interested in doing is taking my money. I am beginning to wonder if Flashtweet is a scam.
We can assure you that FlashTweet is not a scam! Our users are very happy with the services and upgrades that we are providing. Please email us your information with a note that you are from the TwitterJoker blog and we will hook you up for the trouble you went through! =)
