Tweeters at Hammock Inc. share their favorite apps
You probably already know that we love Twitter! So last week when the conversation turned to what tools use to tweet, there were several votes for favorites.

I've been on Twitter since March 2007, but only in the last month have I used an actual app for it on my desktop. I always used to access it through my browser, but when I got a second account I needed something that would facilitate switching between the two easily and with little chance of tweeting from the wrong account. At Rex's suggestion I started using Nambu, and I absolutely love it. I tried Tweetie, and while it looks nice, it's just not as fluid and has a few bugs that annoy me too much.
I think my addiction to Twitter is obvious to anyone who follows my (original) account. When my husband and I got married (secretly--nobody knew), I tweeted the news before we called most of our friends to tell them.

I am not addicted to Twitter yet, but I find myself checking into Twitter more than Facebook now (I blame the quizzes!). Also, the favorite person I follow now is @MrPigglesWorth. He's a landscaper in Lebanon, Tenn., with really helpful tips. And since I'm new to gardening (with the new house) pretty much everything he tweets is helpful to me!

I haven't compared Tweetie with other Mac applications, but I had friends tell me that TweetDeck made their computer run too slowly, so I decided to go with Tweetie instead. I don't Twitter from my phone at all. That's a new level connectivity that I have yet to reach. Downloading an application made me feel like I might be addicted, but since I don't tweet from my phone, I feel like I don't need a rehab program yet.


To give us even more Twitter-app food for thought, Mashable recently gave us the 411 on 25 different apps for managing multiple accounts. There are several on their list that sound worth trying. What's your favorite?
