    Hi Diana,
    I liked your post. As usual it was very well researched and well written. I left you a comment.

      Thanks!! I was over at your blog today, too. It's been so hectic for me over the past month, it's good to get back to the blogosphere.

    @diane - I just did a stumble "discover" for you Diane. The piece was very useful! I hope it brings you much traffic for a well-written piece!

    Ummmm - Wait... You missed one...

    Shouldn't this be in Shameless Blog Promotion?

    But I guess if this one is ok... And- if this one is OK - Then they ARE ALL OK

    (priceless)

    Twitpic tool I use for Twitter at this time. I also have my twitpic linked into my blog site which is really fun

      twitsnip is an awesome tool!

      If you like Twitpic, you might also like bubbletweet.com. It's the Twitpic for videos (except you might only be able to Twitter webcam videos... I haven't really explored it yet, as I just discovered it a couple hours ago.

    Adobe AIR is a memory hog and although I used to like twhirl .. it was part of the problem.

    Now - I use twitter 3 ways
    1) iTweet.net
    2) twitter.com/home (web occasionally)
    3) tweetbar addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/4677

    I use the built in search inside iTweet.net and also have a greasemonkey (do BC search) that shows up recent twitter comments on your everyday google searches.

    Since I've been using multiple twitter accounts, I log in from the web access .. I thought splitweet.com would be good for posting tweets to multiple accounts (not at once, but selecting an account and posting from inside same web application) but I seem to multi-task fine without that.

      Thanks for the itweet link, looks like a great adobe AIR alternative

    wow! am i on earth? I've never heard of those tools? where do i find it in twitter? i though twitter was only about following and setting status
    1. dianaf86
      Except for search.twitter.com, these are all 3rd party applications, so you won't be able to find them on the Twitter site. Mashable has a bit list of 140+ twitter tools: mashable.com/2008/05/24/14-more-twitter-tools/

    Of all the ones I use, I enjoy TweetDeck, Twitpic.com, and Twt.fm the most

    I have heard that Ashton Kutcher is the most favorite Twitter tool.
