I’ve been thinking…

by Abcmsaj on 15 Mar 2009

I’m trying to sproose HTiT up a little bit, and I’ve come up with a few ideas that I’d like to run past you all.

In the past, we’ve done iPod Touch accessory reviews (for the 1G and 2G), App reviews, App giveaways and Macbook accessories. These have been moderately successful, in the sense that people who read our reviews enjoy them, and consider buying the product afterwards - Great Success!

We’ve also done external-site features to help assist our write ups here: HTiT’s YouTube channel (video reviews), the iPTF Podcast (news of the week).

But I’d like to run a few prospects for the future that I had in mind:

  • Hack The iPod Touch Twitter. Bringing you up to date snippets of HTiT and news.
  • Mac OS X app reviews.

Of course - This is an iPhone/iPod Touch based news site - Hence the name - But if we could branch away from the norm slightly, and have a mixture of iPhone/iPod/Mac stories/reviews/accessories - I think we’d reach out to a whole lot more people.

So if you don’t mind, I’d love your feedback on the situation - How you think HTiT is run? How could it be improved? What do you want to know about? Please take into account my Mac OS X app idea, and Twitter idea too, and see if that appeals to you - But also give us some of YOUR ideas. Coz you’re who we’re writing for!

    I personally think that the idea for the twitter account would be great!! Alot of people, including me use their iPod Touch/iPhone to visit here and with so many free Twitter apps available it’ll be even easier to stay up to date..

    About the Mac OS X app, I myself am a windows user but I’m sure that any Mac users would love to keep up to date with new releases..

    Just my opinions =]

    A great way to spruce up HTIT would be to enable full feeds.

    And I’d be against Mac OSX news/reviews etc. The name is hacktheipodtouch.com. Let’s keep it on ipod touch. If you want to include iphone, that’s one thing. Mac OSX news seems too off-topic to me.

    A twitter is fine though.
