In case you were looking for a slightly easier method, Buffer might be interesting to you. You simply throw a few tweets in your Buffer and they are then scheduled FOR you throughout the day. No hassle of individual scheduling.

Bonus: Buffer.com

BinReminded.comThis is another interesting tool allowing you to schedule your tweets in order to be reminded about things you don’t want to forget. Definitely worth taking a look if you want a slightly different approach to scheduling your tweets.

Twaitter is another tool which might take a bit of time to familiarize yourself with. Besides scheduling tweets, it also offers a few more nice add-ons.

Twaitter.com

FutureTweets is very similar to Twuffer and a service that is dedicated to allowing you to

schedule tweets.

Twuffer lets you schedule tweets on a clean interface and is completely free for you to use.
