Set up a HootFeed

Set up a HootFeed in a matter of seconds. HootFeed is a live Twitter stream that can be displayed on screens at events, encouraging interaction with the feed from guests.

HootFeed is optimized for 30-inch+ screens, and functions best in a Chrome browser. HootFeed refreshes automatically, so new tweets display every seven seconds (if available).

To set up a HootFeed

1. Open hootsuite.com/hootfeed in your browser.
2. Enter your email address and at least one keyword to filter content.
3. Optional: Click the Profanity Filter to turn it on or off.
4. Optional: Click the Customize toggle to turn it on or off. Skip to step 7 if not customizing.
5. Enter your Company name, and click Upload Logo to select an image from your device.
6. Click the squares to select background and text colours for the HootFeed.
7. Click Launch.
8. Enter your Twitter credentials and authorize HootFeed to stream tweets from your Twitter account.

  Your HootFeed URL will display in the top-right corner of the feed.
