If you’re on Twitter, I’d like to know what your favorite Twitter clients are. If you’re like me, you use more than one method, so feel free to check more than one. Personally, I use Twhirl, Seesmic Desktop, and also tweet via SMS/Text from my cell. And after you vote, feel free to comment at the bottom and explain how and why you use the specific clients you do.
I like TweetDeck because it is complicated. It takes a lot of time to set up, but the benefit is that I can get it to divide my incoming tweets exactly how I want them to. Like Hiram, I appreciate its new integration with Facebook and MySpace.
I used to use FriendFeed to pull my tweets onto my Facebook wall but without pushing them into the newsfeed that all my friends see. The latest update to the FriendFeed application has changed that, so I'm looking for an alternate solution.
I got my Verizon Blitz specifically to make it easier to send tweets while on the go from my phone.
I think Twitter has done a good enough job keeping up with their own service that there is still a lot to love about the Twitter.com web interface, too.
And on my netbook, TweetDeck uses too much screen real estate and RAM, so Twhirl is great there.
I use Tweetdeck because it's easy to aggregate all your feeds in real-time from multiple people you're following, and it gives you the option of viewing updates from groups of people (I have a Lancaster group that keeps me up on what's happening locally), @replies and DMs, all in a single page. Recently they added Facebook and Myspace account linking, so I can view status updates from my friends on both those social networks, and comment/like their statements from Tweetdeck. Life just got easier!
and of course I text message on the go - that's a no-brainer!
