Maybe I’m atypical in my usage, but the tweetminder goal is completely the opposite of what I want, in that my twitter account is a bad habit best used in moderation. 😄 The default tweetminder set up doesn’t let me use a do less goal (I can convert it to custom, but then I have to remember all the knobs to twiddle to get the right behaviour), so I ended up setting up an IFTTT driven goal instead. This isn’t really a problem - the IFTTT integration works great for this - but I was wondering whether this was the common experience. Do people really want goals of tweeting more, or is it just intended as an integration point? ---

Yeah, we viewed Twitter (pre-IFTTT) as useful glue. Like you want to beemind some fitness app that can auto-tweet whenever you do a run? Just have it tweet to some Twitter account that you connect to Beeminder and voila. But also I guess we did fail to consider your use case. I personally keep forgetting to use my Twitter account ([@dreev](http://twitter.com/dreev "Not to be confused with @dreeves, who I'm very easy to confuse with since my username in many places is dreeves and the owner of 'dreeves' on twitter is preposterously similar to me... Pacific northwest, cyclist, quantified self person, we're even both founders of motivation-oriented startups")) so I like Beeminder nudging me once a week or so to tweet something. In any case, might be an easy UVI to add a Do Less option for Twitter… Let’s see if anyone else clicks the heart on your post! ---

Yes, I had a suspicion that the motivation for the feature might be the beeminder founders’ tweeting habits. 😉 Personally, I found the IFTTT support possibly more useful given the degree of customisation possible. I don’t know that I’d encourage to spend time on this. Incidentally, I had to google to find the twitter integration at all - it’s not linked in from the goal creation screen as far as I could see. ---

All integrations are listed on this [increasingly poorly named thread](http://forum.beeminder.com/t/hard-committing-to-the-next-batch-of-autodata-integrations/420), including links to the goal-creation screens.
