I was one of those who thought I just didn’t have the time to tweet! (You probably know that’s when you send a message via Twitter.)
And it really was a pain to use Twitter if you went to the http://twitter.com/drperdew to manage your account. But I found a tool that my new friend, Lynn Terry, was using to manage her twitter conversations.
And it’s awesome. By the way, Lynn is now one of the featured speakers at Niche Affiliate Marketing System workshop coming up in a little less than a month. Check out that site to see what Lynn and the other speakers will be teaching.
Back to Twitter – so this tool I love is free! It’s called http://www.tweetdeck.com. It installs on your desktop and allows you to actually manage the twitter morass.
Instead of telling you about it though, I encourage you to take a look at the short video I did about Tweetdeck.
By the way, follow me on Twitter at http://twitter.com/drperdew.
And if you’d like to see a 640 pixel version of this video below (recommend it since you’ll want to read it too…) check it out here.
I can totally relate to that. I never really got the entire Twitter-thing, until I downloaded Twhirl, another desktop client. All of a sudden, I could see the fun & benefits of being an active ‘Tweeter’.
Lately, I’ve been hearing nothing but good stuff about Tweetdeck. I guess I’ll be giving it a try soon.
Hey Mieke –
I used Twhirl too for a while. In fact, I just deleted it because tweetdeck is sooooo powerful.
Hope you’re well 🙂

Hey David!
I agree, Tweetdeck is just perfect to make Twitter much more useful (and for starters to put sense and value in it).
Currently I’m playing with PeopleBrowsr, which is similar to Tweetdeck but includes also your other online identities and those of your friends. Looks awesome but also bit confusing as there are so many options… Definitely worth having a look at…
Have a great day! 🙂
