TweetDeck

TweetDeck Homepage

My personal favorite. Everyone who uses twitter must at least give TweetDeck a few hours of attention.

What I like:

1. Display columns of streaming search results for keywords
2. Easily monitor the posts of people you follow and posts that mention your name in their own columns
3. Sort users into groups
4. generate tag clouds for every group, topic, and column you create.
5. manage multiple twitter accounts from one interface. Just click the username you wish to tweet under.
6. access tons of command (follow/unfollow/block/reply/direct message) by mousing over any tweet’s profile image
7. can be used to simultaneously or update your Facebook and/or Myspace status

What I don’t like:

1. Suprisingly there is very little to dislike about TweetDeck. My only complaint is it’s somewhat of a system hog and does not run well for days at a time on $600.00 laptops
