July 2, 2011 
2 comments Tweet Buffer
Here at Buffer, Joel and I changed quite a few things over the past few months. Recently, we decided to give all of our available plans an upgrade in order to match the value we think the product provides.
Sending tweets from anywhere on the web and having Buffer take care of the tweeting should now be even easier.
So here is what you get now:
Free plan
- We made adding your custom bit.ly details free. If you were paying just to get this feature and now the free plan is all you need, please get in touch and we will happily help you move to the Free plan.
- You can now turn off your Buffer for specific days.

The feedback and request we received for this feature during the week was purely amazing. Thanks to everyone who got in touch and requested that this could be useful to them.
As of today, you can easily add additional Buffering patterns to make your Tweeting more personalised.
What is Buffer?
Buffer is a completely new way to share the content we come across each day. You simply drop Tweets into your Buffer and the App posts them for you well spaced out over the day. It is like a social Instapaper. Insteading of clicking to read it later. Click the article to be tweeted later via one of the browser extensions and continue your reading adventure.
Give Buffer a go here.
How does it work?
Our main goal was to keep the same simplicity, yet offer you more options to create a customised Tweeting patterns.

[NEW FEATURE] Buffering Profiles – Most Requested Feature For Months
June 29, 2011 19 comments Tweet Buffer
I am very excited to share the news with you on the latest developments of Buffer. Many of you have told us that you would like the option to only tweet on certain days. Especially the option to stop tweeting over the weekends was requested many times.
So today, I am happy to announce that we have created a new feature that we’ve named “Buffering Profiles”. It allows you to adjust your tweeting to your personal needs.
How does it work?
You can simply go to “settings” and click the “change days” button in order to play with the new functionality. Try it to pause your Buffer at weekends or simply whenever you feel that today your Buffer should take a rest.

How to be successful on Twitter with Buffer and Google Reader

This is a guestpost from Kevin Sablan alias @ksablan. If you want to write a guestpost about anything Social Media, Twitter or Buffer related, hit me up.
How I use Twitter
The way I use Bufferapp works for me because I’ve done two things over the course of years. First, I’ve subscribed to hundreds of blogs and organized them into folders/categories in Google Reader.
Second, I decided long ago to use my @ksablan Twitter account to discuss and share links related to journalism, links and how social media and SEO relate to those specific topics. So I’ve built a small group of friends who have come to expect links about those topics in particular.

Only last week Joel has pushed the Buffer Button as a wordpress plugin live. Since a few users have had issues with simply installing the plugin, I wanted to give you a sure fire way of how to make it work without any troubles.
Sharebar is a great plugin and very similar to DiggDigg. It allows you to display all your favourite social sharing options in a super simple way.
1.) Install Sharebar
Simply search your plugins for the plugin “sharebar” and install it. After activation, you will have a nice looking set of sharing options for all your favourite social networks in your sidebar:

We are glad to tell you about the latest development happenings over here at Buffer. As of this week we have published the fully fledged Firefox plugin for you available to use.
You can install it here or via our goodies page of course.
It boasts about the same features as the Chrome extension and I hope if you have been using the Bookmarklet for Firefox to date, then this is a good update for you.
1# Buffer any webpage you come across
Similar to the Chrome and Safari extension you can hit the Buffer icon at any time and add a tweet to your Buffer. The only real difference is that the placing of the icon is in the bottom right in the Firefox add-on bar.

How To Make Publishing Tweets Even Easier: Buffer and Refynr partner
May 20, 2011 10 comments Tweet Buffer
Here is an update we are very excited about. As of today you can start Buffering tweets from inside Refynr.
Refynr is a web app that allows you to filter out the clutter of your Social Media stream and save your most valuable tweets for later. So you get a new “refyned” feed of tweets.
You can create this personalized stream by setting up keywords you want to include, such as “Twitter”, “Social Media” and “Startups” in my case.

Be Awesome On Twitter With Buffer
In March, we opened our new site, Scribas.com. While scouring the net for ways to better use Twitter, we saw a few recommendations for Buffer App and hoped it would allow us to more effectively use Twitter to increase our exposure and share our content.
I found Buffer and gave it a whirl and have been impressed with our results so far.
So, here are a list of five things that helped me greatly whilst using Buffer.
