Social media tools are really a time-saver…and they can help you avoid getting side-tracked. Website Magazine released some data regarding the most popular Twitter clients available. Without further delay, the list:
| Rank | Client | % of Users |
| 1 | TweetDeck (www.tweetdeck.com) | 13.07% |
| 2 | Tweetie (www.atebites.com) | 7.47% |
| 3 | Hootsuite (www.hootsuite.com) | 2.46% |

| 5 | Twitterfon (www.twitterfon.net) | 1.98% |
| 6 | Seesmic (www.seesmic.com) | 1.82% |
| 7 | Ping.fm (www.ping.fm) | 1.75% |
| 8 | UberTwitter (www.ubertwitter.com) | 1.28% |
| 9 | Twitterriffic (www.twitterrific.com) | 1.20% |
| 10 | TwitterFox (www.twitterfox.net) | 1.18% |
As I have said in previous posts, I am partial to TweetDeck. Although not uncommon anymore, TweetDeck allows management of multiple accounts, Facebook status updates, pictures and videos, easy RT, direct message and more. My favorite “tool” on-the-go is still Zannel. Although not considered an actual “tool”, it is very easy to update your status from a mobile device while including pictures and video with Zannel. Picking a tool for your social media marketing campaign is an important, but fun step!
