We have really been looking forward to announcing the launch of our new online résumé/CV product called Twitsumé and it has been tough to not say too much. But at last the launch date has arrived and we can tell you all about it. First things first – it’s found at twitsume.com
In a nutshell, Twitsumé.com allows anyone with a Twitter account to connect and create an online résumé/CV (or “Twitsumé”) for all registered Twitsumé.com users to see. They can also see who of their friends and followers have Twitsumés and invite those who do not. Their are public/private settings enabling users to decide which aspects of their Twitsumé can be seen by all registered users and which are hidden.
We built the Twitsumé.com interface ontop of PersonL, our Recruitment Management Software Suite. The Twitsumé aspects took just over a month to build, but PersonL has been 2 years in the making.
See an interview with RSAWEB TV about the rationale of the product and a bit about the build process.
More about the Twitter API and some of our learnings to follow as well as news around the success of the launch.
Please use the product and tell us what you think.
See example Twitsumés:

1Had a look at Twitsume, great product. However if you are using video’s to do promotions, then need to put more thought into it.
On this post for example, wouldn’t it have been better to have some sort of Twitsume banner against to wall with the URL on it as well?
