Do any of you use BufferApp? Evan from My Journey To Millions introduced me and it's great. You kind of set it and forget it. Just refill every few days with posts from your site (or posts you see around the web), and it will look very natural and do the work even when you can't. They have plugins for different browsers (I use Chrome), so it's really just one click away as opposed to building each tweet separately. The best part is they schedule the tweets at random times throughout the day. Check it out, if you use my link, we each get extra space (so instead of 10 tweets, you can schedule 11, etc.) Let me know what you all think, are there other services out there like this? Hootsuite has something, but it's not quite as good.

I've heard good things about it.

I like Hootsuite.  Not only can you schedule tweets but you can also schedule Facebook.

I've been using it since October. I read advice about combining it with another app that determines when most of my 1100+ twitter followers are really online (and not just sending out pre-programmed messages). That way, I'm not shooting blindly and I'm not spamming constant tweets. I found there's a nice bump in the morning around 9 a.m. in my crowd, then a gradual pick up from 3:30 p.m. through about 8 p.m. I schedule my Buffer around this schedule, ignoring the middle of the day.

I can't remember the name of the other app, but I'm sure someone here will know what it is.

I'd bet it's timely.is, which I use.   You can push as many tweets/facebook posts into as many accounts as you'd like, tell it how often to post to each account, and it will attempt to find the most productive time for each.

I often use Twuffer. It's a great way to time manage your Twitter activities.

I like using Buffer because you can pull key quotes out of a post instead of always tweeting with the title of the post. I also like the idea of being able to post date the tweets.

funny — it took me days to figure out their key/app thing and then I got it figured out, they told me I had to go 'fill' it, which to me said "this will cost you" — good to know that they don't actually mean 'put money' to fill it!
