If you’re a busy person who can’t spend time constantly tapping out 140-characters then use Tweetdeck to schedule your tweets! Set aside an hour or so and schedule your tweets for the entire week, month, year – whichever you like. Add a bunch of your favourite followers to a list on Tweetdeck and you’ll be able to keep on top of everything they post! Genius isn’t it? Scheduling Tweets This is a wonderful invention for any fledgling stalkers. So you’re following 400+ people – how do you expect to cut through their noise? Add them to a list! You can find them in the + Add Column section. And you can click on their favourites to see who they really like on Twitter.But if you click on their mentions you can see who’s talking to them.You can click on their Tweets to see what they’re saying, doing, and retweeting.The listed bit is about how many lists other people have added them to, but more on that later. Have a look at the number of tweets they’ve made to see how long they’ve been in the game, or how noisy they are. Have a look at the numbers – what they’re following, what their follower ratio is (if they’re following more people than are following back, then they’re probably not worth it. You can click on their name to see a quick view of who they are – description, etc. When someone follows you, it’ll appear in your Notifications column. If you have a couple of accounts, you can set it to show you what’s going on interactions-wise for each account. These will appear in your Tweetdeck view, so you can see at a glance who’s talking to you publicly and privately. Here’s the settings I like to use:Ĭlick on + Add Column and select Notifications and Direct Messages as a minimum. I like to keep my columns narrow, background white (not mean and moody dark), and the text small so I can fit more in on my screen.
#A BETTER TWEETDECK HOW TO#
How To Set Up TweetdeckĬlick here, log in with your Twitter account details and voila! It’s that simple. It was one of the first Twitter management tools that came out, and that is why I’m used to it. There are other apps about, such as Hootsuite, but I use Tweetdeck because I like it. It makes it easier for you to tweet faster, listen out to others, and to find other interesting people or topics to listen to. It’s an app that sits on your desktop, mobile, or tablet. That’s right, it’s Tweetdeck – a tool to make your secret agent life much easier.
