Hide World Cup Twitter updates


Does your Twitter timeline been flooded with World Cup updates all night long? Poor you but there’s a way for non-football lovers to hide those annoying updates.

Ever heard of hashtags? Now, if your Twitter client is as cool as mine, you can actually hide those World Cup related hashtags from appearing.

If you’re using DestroyTwitter, look for Preferences > Rules > Exclude these keywords. Insert hashtags such as #worldcup, #wc2010, #2010wc or any relevant keywords. With this setting, any tweet with those hashtags will be kept out of sight. Tada!!

To those who tweet like crazy while watching the match (like me huhu), do a favour to your followers by including World Cup hashtags in your tweets. They won’t be annoyed and your number of followers too will stay safe :)

I don’t know about other Twitter clients though, probably the setting is there. Look for it!

 

P/S: I love Twitter search updates during the games. Football fans around the world will tweet about it and most of them are hilarious! Especially the #vuvuzela!
