    Hi all,
    Does anyone know if an app exists to monitor a twitter account and send an alert whether it be an email etc. if a tweet is sent? I've looked high and low over the googleverse to no avail.

    Many Thanks
    David

    Thanks Gerry. I've got Hootesuite but cannot work out how to set it up to alert if a user I'm following tweets. Can you point me in the right direction please? Thanks again

    Have not used it much but it's pretty scary for privacy reasons http://geosocialfootprint.com/

    Not email based, but tweetdeck will pop up a message and give an audio alert if you put a user into a search. I use it to monitor a number of work accounts. Does the job.

    I don't think any tool does this but if you schedule posts using bufferapp.com , then they will let you know that your schedule posts have been sent.
