I have spent the last couple of days editing a teleseminar (now a transcript) that Joan Stewart, The Publicity Hound conducted with BL Ochman of Whatsnextonnline on social networking.
One of the tasks that I perform when editing a transcript is to make sure that all the hyper-links work in both the word document and the PDF that I create.
As a result of reading this document I get very distracted with all the new information and websites that I can use.
One of them is called TweetDeck which you can find at http://www.tweetdeck.com/beta/. I have installed on my computer now and have it on for parts of the day. I do like it as I can now get the tweets whenever someone I follow posts a new tweet.
One word of warning though. It can be very distracting. I can multi-task with the best of them, but at some point I do have to turn it off.
It is a great tool and will continue to use it.
