TweetDeck for Newbies
There are a lot of aggregators out there for Twitter. I’ve tried many of them and found that TweetDeck is my favorite. (I also happen to like UberTwitter for Blackberry) There are tons of likeable options, the ability to send a twit and update Facebook at the same time is pretty cool. I would caution folks however not to use the #fb or Facebook option all the time. Folks tend to get annoyed when they only get one side of a Twitter conversation on Facebook.
TweetDeck sports the following features (as listed on their website):
- Tweet directly from TweetDeck and share photos or web links
- Manage conversations with @replies and direct messages
- Create Groups to easily follow friends, colleagues or other interest groups
- Follow topics in real-time with saved searches
- Update Facebook and view your friends’ status updates
- Preview short URLs from the comfort of TweetDeck
I’ve created a quick tutorial for TweetDeck users

I agree with the tweetdeck assessment. It totally changed my use of twitter and my understanding of it’s power. I always recommend it when I am teaching my intro to Twitter courses!
