It recently occurred to me that many folks try to use Twitter without Tweetdeck. I find this tool invaluable for tracking multiple Twitter accounts, for adding creating & managing Twitter lists, for following special Tweeters so I don't miss any posts, for easily RT (re-tweeting) and replying with DM (direct messages) & managing @ replies. I also love the automatic url shortening feature. I like to quickly update Facebook via tweets which are fast and automatic. I can also tweet from the news wall of other's Facebook posts that I receive such as the Library of Congress. This tool is a real time saver.They've even added a few new features in the most recent upgrade. Be sure to try this tool to get the most out of Twitter.
New Tweetdeck features:
- Update Twitter, Facebook, MySpace, LinkedIn and now Google Buzz and Foursquare
- Check-in to Foursquare direct from the client
- View YouTube videos within TweetDeck, and record and share video clips though TwitVid
- Use our scheduling feature to check-in or send a tweet in the future
- Use the Global Filter to remove unnecessary tweets by account, service or hashtag
- Add networks that use a compatible Twitter API, like WordPress and Tumblr
