10 new tools to make to most out of Twi tter(http://www.webdesignerdepot.com/2011/06/10-new-tools-to-make-to-most-out-of-twitter/)
(http:/ / netdna.webdesignerdepot.com/ uploads/ 2011/ 05/ thumb10.jpg) Keeping up with the ever-
evolving Twitter isnt easy.
User patterns are always changing, while the tools for tracking them are improving.
And there are hundreds of new tools to sort through that keep popping up every week.
For this post, I have compiled a list of 10 relatively new tools that I use f requently to make the most of Twitter.
What about you? Which tools do you use most and you can recommend?
Please leave us some of your recommendations in the comments area
1. TweetAl arm
Google Alerts for Tw itter. Want to see who is mentioning your name, brand or area of interest on Twitter? Then TweetAlarm
(http:/ / ww w.tweetalarm.com/ ) is your answer. Set up as many search terms as you want, and get a convenient report delivered to your
inbox.
Most useful aspect: Being able to set search terms as you s ign up saves a lot of time.

2. Buffer
Tweet w ithout flooding your fo llowers.Buffer (http:/ / bufferapp .com/) is helpful if you like to share many blog posts in a day. Throw
them at Buffer at any time, and Buffer will space them out throughout the day. You also get analytics for Buffered tweets, such as for clicks,
retweets and reach. (Full disclosure: I work for Buffer.)
Most useful aspect: You can Buffer tweets from any page with a browser extension and even in Google Reader.

3. My6Sense
This new tool is something else. My6Sense ( http:/ / ww w.my6sense.com/ ) gives you a stream of updates from your Twitter account and
other social networks, but only the items that interest you. How does it do that? By monitoring your clicking behavior and refining the stream
accordingly.
Most useful aspect: It also works well on iOS and Android, where clutter is most annoying.

4. binReminded
Tw eet reminders fo r important events. If you live in Twitter like me, then binReminded ( http:/ / binreminded.com/ ) could come in handy.
Send yourself reminders for upcoming events that you are likely to forget about. Getting that self-DM or @ reply close to the date helps a lot.
Most useful aspect: binReminded integrates with PayPal, too, allowing you to send payment reminders.
