Thanks for this video, showing the functionality. I'll be able to get hold of the software and hit the ground running, now that I've watched the vid.

Hey Josh,

Tweetdeck looks like just the thing I’ve been looking for.

Thanks for this video, showing the functionality.

I’ll be able to get hold of the software and hit the ground running, now that I’ve watched the vid.

Cheers buddy,

I have a fair number of followers, and follow a fair number of people, but find that it is not worth the time that I see many people put into it. I do agree though that Tweet Deck is great for Twitter users (from what I've heard). .-= The Gooroo @ iBlogPlanet.com´s last blog ..<a href="http://iblogplanet.com/be-more-than-an-entrepreneur-be-a-creative-one/" rel="nofollow">Be More Than An Entrepreneur – Be A Creative One</a> =-.

But thanks to your video on Tweet Deck I can now see that there are ways to control this. I am now more encouraged to join Twitter with less fear of it turning into a nightmare.

This video was extremely helpful for me because I have been feeling very overwhelmed with the amount of tweets I've been getting from people from all over. Because of this I've almost ignored Twitter because of the that I didn't know how to organize the messages into any coherent method. Just like you, I downloaded TweetDeck about four months ago, but I ended up putting it on the back burner. I didn't know I could create the groups and filters like you set up here. Because of this I'm going to dust off TweetDeck and start adding from good friends into my group (don't worry, you'll be included =P) Get ready to hear more from me on Twitter! Thanks again, bro.

Yeah, thats what swung it for me finally was the free iPhone app. I pretty much use my iPhone for everything these days so that was a must! Hey Paul, good to hear from you!

I have the desktop version (although I haven't got to grips with it yet!), and am downloading the version for my iPhone as we speak :-) I didn't realise this was available! I will get them set up and start using them over the next couple of days!!...Thanks :-) Talk real soon, Paul Hey Josh,

I use Seesmic Desktop because I have too many followers for tweetdeck to handle if I wanted to set up another group. Being able to filter only the people you are really interested in and making it simple to post shortened urls makes using this type of software a must if you are going to seriously use Twitter to interact with your followers. Good job on getting such a response from your followers though. I must have way too many deadbeats on my account though I have found recently I am getting more retweets etc. I am always open to interacting with people who want to interact with me and that won't change no matter how huge my following grows to.
