Thanks for mentioning about Tweetdeck. It makes tweeting easier and more organized especially if you’re following a lot of people. And Twellow makes following people who are like-minded such a breeze.

Barefootmeg, thanks for your input. You're right, Twitter.com is not easy to use. And Ryan, like Meg I would use a tool like TweetDeck. It takes a lot of frustration out of tweeting and managing your contacts. Carla, many people seem to have had the same experience.

After several dozen Tweets, I abandoned it. I came back to it late last fall and finally got the hang of it (though I still have a ways to go) - it helps that there are more users too. I'll have to check out the new tools you listed. When I first started using Twitter in the summer of 2007, I had no idea what to do with it or what it was for.

(a little too easy sometimes.) ;-) there are also several sites that help you track your followers and followees. i don't remember all of the site names, but you can find a growing list of twitter apps at http://twitteraddicts.multiply.com @ryan700 – ryan, one of the worst tools for following tweets is twitter.com. i’d highly recommend tweetdeck, seesmic or (my fave) nambu. all make retweeting easy.

The only things that are difficult for me is RTing and finding people who I've followed or are following me. RTing is a bit of a hassle with the cut and paste you have to do and I wish that there was an alphabetical sort feature for followers and those I'm following. I am happy that they now have a search function in the column on the right side and a snapshot of what other people are searching for. <a href="http://www.eco-snob.com" rel="nofollow">Ecosnob<a> I’ve just started a couple of weeks ago.
