Today we have two new features available in the application: six months of data and agency co-branding of workspaces.

Agency co-branding is the ability to add a second logo to the workspace header, with custom text that will appear on the homepage and on click for the second logo. Agencies have been asking for the ability to co-brand the application for clients that they share a workspace with, like so:

This feature will support the addition of any second logo to a workspace, for instance the iPhone group within Apple, or the Basketball team within Nike. Go to the “Settings” tab and note that there are now two slots for uploaded images plus a agency info/custom text field. Just make sure you hit “refresh” after you upload new images to see your new assets in the header. It is possible to format text using basic HTML or the Markdown syntax such as * for italics or ** for bold and to include links in the text field. More detail on how to format the agency info area in our Support section.

Six months of blog data is also now available. We are hearing from all of you that two+ years of data is optimal, to do year over year trending and get a little more history, so expect more data to be made available soon. Sentiment is available only for the past three months. Six month graphs are also available with one caveat: because we are only supporting sentiment on the last 3 months of data, six month sentiment view may flat line more than three months back. If you get more, consider it the gift of an idle 8-core processor!

Next up: Blog comments, one of the two remaining must-have data types (the other is message boards, which won’t be available until summer). Also customizable date ranges for viewing blog data and export of data, both of which have been repeatedly requested by users who want to tailor the view within the application and work with data outside it.

In terms of other major features, we are working hard on full Twitter data, including graphs and frequent word lists. You’ll be able to plug in a search and use more exact search parameters than are supported by search.twitter.com and get trendable graph data, which no one else has. We’ll definitely let you know as soon as that one is ready!
