Spotback Personal Tag Tracker

It's been almost three weeks since our last version update. In case you are wondering what we were up to all this time... well, we've been reading through your feedbacks and requests, analyzing usage patterns, figuring ways to make Spotback better (oh, and coding, designing, traveling to conferences and sleeping in the remaining 3 hours).

This release introduces a new and powerful tool that allows you to track things that are important to you inside Spotback. The Personal Tag Tracker allows you to:
- Track any single word or combination of two words.
- Tracked words are not limited only to tags defines by the authors of the stories, but rather cover the entire title and text of the stories.
- Highlight tracked words to help you spot those words when they appear within the titles and text of the stories.
- Unread story alert (on top of the new 'Tag Tracker' tab) shows how many unread stories are there that contain tags that you defined.

The tag tracker also affects the stories that Spotback chooses for you. This means that when Spotback chooses stories for you it gives extra weight to stories that contain tracked words. You can also limit each tag to specific categories to filter out irrelevant stories.

I haven't been up to much lately. I've basically been doing nothing , but it's not important. I can't be bothered with anything recently. I've just been letting everything happen without me lately.

Cool site. Thank you:-)

I haven't been up to anything these days. So it goes. I can't be bothered with anything these days.

I haven't gotten anything done recently. I've just been hanging out doing nothing. I haven't been up to anything these days, but it's not important. Today was a total loss.

I haven't been up to anything recently, but so it goes. Such is life. What can I say? Pretty much not much exciting going on to speak of. I haven't gotten much done lately, but I don't care.

I can't be bothered with anything these days, but shrug. I just don't have anything to say recently. I haven't gotten much done recently. Nothing seems worth thinking about.

I haven't been up to anything today. I don't care. I've just been staying at home not getting anything done. Basically not much happening right now. Maybe tomorrow. I guess it doesn't bother me.
