I agree with you on the Tweetie comment... I use Tweetie because it is very easy to use and flows very nicely as it runs just like any other Mac-based program; very intuitive. I used Tweetdeck "back in the day" (which if you're a Dane Cook fan, was a Wednesday, but that's beside the point...) but just wasn't a huge fan of it because I couldn't manage multiple accounts. I switched to Twhirl (which is just like Seesmic) because of how easy it was to simultaneously manage multiple accounts, but if you have more than 2 or 3, it gets pretty clunky having multiple windows open. Needless to say, I'm very pleased with Tweetie, but to each their own. Thanks again for the comment! Hey Jason, thanks for the post.

Easy to read and flows nice. Another app that I have found very useful is Tweetstack which is a iphone app based off of the desktop client Tweetdeck. Any thoughts on the Seesmic Desktop?

Any thoughts on the Seesmic Desktop?

Yea there are a ton of apps and clients out there for Twitter, and it can be really overwhelming. I much prefer using APIs such as Tweetie over the web interface. They tend to run much more smoothly (as I'm writing this Twitter.com is having trouble connecting, see what I mean?) haha. Anyway, as far as tweeting goes, there are so many out there that it really comes down to finding which one is best for <em>you</em>... Such as SpreadTweet. If Twitter is still NSFW at your office, then it can be a great way to get your Twitter fix during the day. But other Twitter APIs like GroupTweet or CoTweet serve a very nice function for corporate Twitter accounts. Stick with Tweetdeck for a little while longer, or try another one. I've found that although APIs can seem awkward at first, they can really prove to be much more efficient Twitter tools than Twitter itself. Thanks Aaron, -Brad Hey Aaron, thanks for the comment.

I never Tweet from it, but I read tweets, favorite links I want to check out (especially video links) and check on responses. I still only use Twitter.com for most of what I do even thought I have Tweetdeck on my laptop. I wonder why that is? Hey Brad- I have Tweetie on my iPhone.
