I use my Twitter account by 'feeding' it with my forum threads through TwitterFeed. Then, I have my Twitter 'feeding' into my FaceBook account. It's been a FANTASTIC way to network and promote my site(s) using the social networking circuit Here's my Twitter: Arnold Varona (TheWDBoards) on Twitter
Yes, I signed up a few months ago, didn't really use it but I downloaded TweetDeck a while back. It's become a very cool tool to use to get my Tweets.
Boss, I haven't started to use TweetDeck yet, but I will be doing that soon! I hear it's a great way to keep track and respond to the Tweets out there.
It sure is, Arny! Otherwise I wouldn't be updating my Twitter much. Well, I could but I can't. I'm using this Twitter extension for Firefox, but every time I clear my cookies the extension logs me out of my Twitter account. It got really annoying until I read some posts on various sites and started exploring Twitter.com I ended up finding a page they have where they recommended some Twitter tools, and TweetDeck looked like the interesting one out of the bunch.

Nick, you tried both and liked Twhirl better? Why did you like it better? I haven't used either, so I'm just on a research mission here
Well Tweetdeck just didn't impress me. I don't know why. I quickly turned to whatever alternative came my way and it happened to be Twhirl. Twhirl is like an instant messaging window with all the tabs I need to do everything without ever visiting Twitter (for the most part). It's slim and it just 'clicks' with me. I enjoy it very much.
Didn't like Tweetdeck personally. It took up too much space on my desktop and I found it hard to manage the columns and accounts. I currently use Seesmic Desktop which is like Twhirl's big brother. It does what I need when I need to do it. Not hard to manage and allows me to find what I need to find easily enough. Columns are easy to manage as well so when I collapse them, I don't actually lose them and I don't have to worry about my primary column. Seesmic DESKTOP
