CHAPTER 20: Social Media and Skype

Hootsuite is our favorite Twitter app for a balance of
features and price. You can use it to manage multiple
accounts, and the interface makes it clear which
account is posting.
If you buy the premium app, you can also track
visitors through the URL-shortening service, ow.ly.
The image on the right shows our favorite extra
feature: scheduled tweets. You can use this feature to
precompose press releases or turn 3:00 a.m. deep
thoughts into mid-afternoon topics of conversation.
Using the feature is as simple as pressing the
Calendar icon when composing a message and
choosing when to send it.
Twidroyd and Touiteur (pronounced Twitter) are a pair of popular apps that feature
both free and paid versions.
Twidroyd was formerly known as Twidroid, but its publisher, TweetUp, changed the name
when it purchased the service to avoid any branding confusion with the LucasArts trademarked
term, droid. Verizon Wireless actually licensed the term droid for your DROID.
