How to Use Twitter (in my humble opinion) - Tip #2 - Panning for Gold Nuggets - 07/27/10 07:47 PM
Although the title of this post says “Tip #2″, it could rightfully be called “Tip #0.5″ since it probably should have come before my first post on this topic. 
One of the biggest points of confusion/complaint with Twitter is this one:
“How can I possibly keep track of hundreds or thousands of people and their tweets?”
Well, you can’t.  So, I would highly recommend using a tool to screen out the noise so that you can really focus on the people you care about.  The top three sites that I can suggest for this purpose are Hootsuite, Tweetdeck, and Seesmic. … (38 comments)
