I am pleased to announce the launch of a new website for use by the EVE Community. Tweveit Connect promises to be a social hub for connecting pod pilots everywhere! Upload avatars, make friends, join and create public or private groups, even create blogs to share your experiences with the interwebs.
Building on the Tweveit brand we hope to create a community of eve players that interact, support, and learn from eachother. Players will come to Tweveit.com to learn about EVE, from there they will come to Tweveit Connect to meet other pod pilots, share ideas, and interact with the community.
We invite you to come check out Tweveit Connect and start meeting and interacting with other players today!

Yeah, you could do that. But, this is a valid option for those of you that are interested in an EVE focused website.

Why would anyone do that when you have the official forums?

Contact the CSM about it, voting themselves into disbandment wouldn't be pushing the boundaries of absurdity for them.

The forums are great for group discussions, but lack in certain areas that Tweveit Connect excels in. To some of you this may seem pointless, but to many this is a fun viable option to enjoy EVE with like minded individuals.

lol, you have heard about COSMOS right? CCP has a massive social networking sight in the making that will integrate with ingame. (http://www.eveonline.com/devblog.asp?a=blog&bid=678)
Still a cool site, but it will have a short life...

LOL, yes, I have in fact heard of the cosmos project. I have the intent of integrating with it once it is released. From what ive read and from rumors the api will be expanded and such to accommodate the Cosmos. So If possible Tweveit Connect will connect with Cosmos. But until then Tweveit Connect is a great resourse. |

sigh.. More "social networking" sites.
If I want to chat with "like minded people" I'll log into eve and chat with corp/alliance mates.
If I want to see what's up and coming for my corp/alliance, I'll check my alliance/corp forums, or in game alliance mail.
These social networking sites are just a place for people to kill time while at work. It's all well and good.
BUT.....
I want to see a setup that TRULY is useful. I'm hopeing that the integration from COSMOS will give us that.
The problem is, flexability.
Example.
Some sort of calendar/alert system for cell phones. It' be great if the CEO's/Alliance leadership could put up a date/time for an op, and have it populated out to everyones cell phones through a CCP made app. BUT, they'd have to do this in multiple programs. Example, you've got symbian, Android, Windows Mobile, Apples iPhone OS, Apples PC OS, Windows Vista/XP/7 and so on. They'd need to make one for each.
Or they could release the API info so folks could make their own, and have a dozen different ones out there.
Me, I'm waiting for COSMOS. I'd rather have a single integrated setup from CCP then 3 dozen possible setups from unknown people.
CCP. Please don't forget Cell phones/PDA's/Smart Phones. Myself, I use one with the Android OS.

Dictionary.com definition of twitter]
Even if people didnt like the name twitter, it did at least have a meaning. It describes what the site does. No idea what tweveit is supposed to mean. Other than you snuck the word eve into something thats meant to sound a bit like twitter?
ūverb (used without object)
1.to utter a succession of small, tremulous sounds, as a bird.
2.to talk lightly and rapidly, esp. of trivial matters; chatter.
3.to titter; giggle.
4.to tremble with excitement or the like; be in a flutter.
ūverb (used with object)
5.to express or utter by twittering.
ūnoun
6.an act of twittering.
7.a twittering sound.
8.a state of tremulous excitement.
The idea of getting video tutorials done is pretty good, but the subject matter has been pretty basic sofar and even for new players does seem rather basic and patronising. Lets face it, if somoene is put off by the user creation being a bit confusing, they arent going to last 5mins playing the actual game.
Maybe some tutorials on industry ect? making t2 or t3 items would be very useful as I always liked the idea of getting into the more complex areas of manufacture and research but found it a little daunting.

I have the intent of moving on to more advanced topics. But I want to create a strong base for which to base the rest of the tutorials on... ie "If you have trouble with this turorial please check out these ones X X X to gain a better understanding of how to complete this tutorial."
But that is a discussion for another topic. This topic is about Tweveit Connect. Please stay on topic. thx :P

Tutorials definitely have a place, these could be popular if done well and viewable anonymously (the only person that cares about your member count is you).
Social networking is a waste of time. Sure, you'll find people out there that just need to be on every network they can find. Others, however, detest the thought, and will stick to one. You can be sure that CCP's effort will be better in every way than your wordpress hack, so it would probably make sense to give up.
"But until then Tweveit Connect is a great resourse." - No, it isn't. You obviously want it to be, but merely saying so doesn't make it true.
When I viewed your site, I was presented with a survey which included questions such as would I be prepared to pay to view the site ad-free. You then asked if so how, much, in a real currency (USD). You know where you can stick this, I think.
Also, the name "Tweveit" is cringe-worthy, please ask the biomass processing queue attendant for a better one on your way out.

Again, not the place for this dicussion. But i will address it anyways.
I think it is a valid question. Do you have any idea what video hosting/bandwidth costs? The purpose of those questions was to see if anyone would be intrested in paying a small sum of money, and thus be able to view the site without ads. I no way did I ever intend to make the site only accesible by paying real cash. I was just seeing if it was a viable option for some people, some people like to pay rather than see adverts.

Most people like to block adverts rather than paying to not see them. You already have a button for donations. I know how much it costs. Why not host them on Youtube or some other similar site? |
