TweetDeck

Introduction

One of my favorite tools is TweetDeck, so in fact Twitter.
I use TweetDeck to tweet what i am doing and thinking. But most of all i use it to see what is going on within the field. This blog item describes the way i use TweetDeck.

Tips and Tricks

Of course you need a TwitterAccount to tweet.

1 - Use Lists

I follow a lot of people and therefore my stream is very large. So how can you filter your stream?

You can create as much List as you like and assign twitter accounts to Lists.

I use the Lists as follows.

* I use list for Interesting tweets

* People i know: Know

You can add Twitter Accounts to Lists:

• Click on the Account

2 - Use Columns

You can add Columns in which you can show all type of Tweets. I use it to show Lists i currently interested in or i use it for topics i currently interesting in. For example on Cordys.

• You select Add Column
• Select the Search and type Cordys

Now you will see all tweets related to Cordys:

You can choose to add a lot of other Column types. Try them.

I find TweetDeck a very usefull tool !
