Introducing – Seesmic Ping Response Metrics Beta

We’re very happy to share with you a beta version of the Seesmic Ping Response Metrics feature for messages that you post to your social networks.

With this feature, you can find out in one place how many likes, comments, shares, retweets, and reblogs you get from Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn – and for paid users, Facebook Pages and Tumblr.

We’re looking forward to your feedback on both the design and the general functions, as we build this out. This feature is available to free users for the last 3 messages and for the last 25 messages for paid users.

Here are details for this first version.

When sending a message from Seesmic Ping,  you are provided summary of results for each message in the “History” section of Seesmic Ping, currently labeled “Feedback“.

The summary is separate by three categories:

• Likes
• Comments
• Shares (including Retweets & Reblogs)

Click on the “Show Details” link to expand on the summary and show all the feedback responses from each of the account.

So far, we’ve summarized your

• Facebook: Likes, Comments, Shares (we’re not able to share responses from messages with images, working with FB on this)
• Twitter: Retweets
• LinkedIn: Likes, Comments, Shares
• Tumblr: Likes, Replies, Reblogs

Each icon that’s has an available response will link to the original post on Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn and Tumblr.

For this version, the data is currently refreshed every 30 minutes (for LinkedIn, it will be every 3 hours for the time being). In the next iteration we’d like to have a notification if you get new or updated information.

Eventually, we’d like to expand on this so you can 1) view the actual responses (who liked your message, read text from comments) and 2) respond directly to all your responses within this section.

Tumblr updates – posting to sub-blogs:
For our paid users , we’ve also improved our implementation with our Tumblr service. You can now post to sub-blogs associated under the main Tumblr account. I works similar to Facebook Pages. Simply choose your Tumblr account and click on “Select Blogs” to get a list of blogs to choose.

We’re excited to have this and our feedback response metrics out to users and looking forward to hearing feedback.
For our paid users, we’ve set up a special help/feedback site – Seesmic VIPs:
