1) Change your name. Tweet + Digg sounds like a social media parody. Also, I don't think you can use the word "tweet" in your name without risking being sued by Twitter. And, if you grow, you may expand beyond filtering Tweets.

2) Your audience and customers are people that use Twitter for business - small businesses, marketing departments, ad agencies, etc. Take a look at other firms in that space (SEOMoz, Buddy Media, HootSuite and see how they do things. Right now your language is geared towards consumers that like Twitter. Change that. Your website needs to explain to a small business how you can help them make more money.

3) It IS a good idea. Social media filtering is a big problem. You are just selling it to the wrong people.

As far as I know using "Tweet" in your name isn't too big an issue (look at Tweetdeck pre-acquisition). Based on how Twitter have been tightening the rules on how we use their platform recently though, it might be something to look at.

Our target audience at the moment is power users who would give us constructive criticism. We thought that any businesses would be reluctant to give us a go whilst things are changing so rapidly. This thread is giving us a reason to rethink that decision though.

Thanks for the reassurance!
