Twitter or Tweetdeck?

Also, real name or something else/clever/funny?

Twitterific.

My real name, as far as I know. I'm continually flummoxed by trying to match the real names of fellow twitterees to their X404 login.

I think it depends on how heavy a user you are, and what it is you're likely to tweet.

Personally, I find the website is fine because I only follow a few people and I tweet rarely. On my phone I use the app it came with. My friends who follow a lot of people use Tweetdeck.

I use my real name because I don't tweet anything controversial, or frankly anything interesting. I'm @youRwired which is also my domain name so people can remember it. Most of my friends use their on-line alias. I was going to use my forum name, but annoyingly it's already taken.

If I want to be able to tweet from multiple accounts e.g. work and personal, does that influence the app decision?

I suspect my phone will be used far more than a computer. Especially overseas.

Third party Twitter apps are being restricted in what they can do, connections they can make, size of user base, so if I was choosing now, I'd prolly try the official Twitter app first.

Like Mark, I use the official Twitter app on my Mac. It's no longer being supported but while it ain't broke I won't fix it. I don't feel any need to buy an app that does way more than I need.

I use tweetdeck as I run multiple accounts (but haven't found a client I'm willing to pay for yet).

I have 2 main accounts.

One in my "online name" (i.e. saspro) and another that's my real name.

That way I can separate out business contacts to their own account.

If I was self employed (or whatever) I'd prolly have to do the same, as sometimes I can get quite sweary on Twitter. (8+D

Would you say Tweetdeck is preferable if you potentially want to run two accounts then Sas? Or can that still be done with Twitter?

Could I install both on the phone to try them, or is that asking for trouble?
