There’s been a lot of hype lately about Twitter. I joined a few months ago when Chris Brogan invited me, but I never really got into it. It felt a little cumbersome to use since at the time you could only update and access the service via a web page.
For those who haven’t tried Twitter, it is a service that lets you post a quick message to let your group know what you are doing now…no NOW…I mean NOW!!!
Now, there are some new tools that make keeping up much easier.

Not sure if I’ll catch the Twitter bug, but these tools certainly make it easier. 
If you give it a try be sure and add me (Brad_Isaac) to your group.

There’s also Twitteroo for Windows, another one of those “update Twitter” from your desktop. Not bad to use when I think about making the effort to make an entry for Twitter.
Hey Joey, thanks for the tip. I’ve updated the list with Twitteroo. It looks like a good client. Trying it now.
Any others I’ve missed?
I just came across this, not really a tool but an addicting waste of time

Enjoy your insightful and inspiring posts keep up the good work.
Chris, that is astounding! Thanks for the link. I’ve added it to the list above.
Forgot about this one, there’s Twitterific for Macs. I think it does the same thing as Twitteroo. I believe its from iconfactory.com
