If you have been using Twitter for any amount of time, you probably have wondered whether there is a better tool to manage your tweets than the Twitter website. How about managing multiple Twitter accounts? Perhaps you find yourself constantly logging in and out of different accounts in the web browser.

There are easier ways to to manage all your tweets and accounts than using the regular Twitter website. You can easily achieve high efficiency with the help of a Twitter desktop application. Let’s examine three of the most popular Twitter desktop applications to help you determine which one would work best for you.

TweetDeck

TweetDeck enables users to split their Twitter feed into columns, creating a clear and simple overview of tweets. With TweetDeck, users can also group their friends. Other features include multiple account management, favorites, and URL shortening. However, TweetDeck does not synch with versions on other computers, so it’s frustrating that users have to do all the settings again when they switch computers.

Seesmic

It does many of the same things that other client managers do, and it works very much like TweetDeck. But Seesmic makes photo sharing easier by allowing users to drag them into a small window. I currently use Seesmic as my primary Twitter application.

Twhirl

Users can view their archive tweets in Twhirl, a feature that TweetDeck doesn’t have. Twhirl is superior to TweetDeck in that it gives users more freedom in customizing colors and themes, which will come in handy when you have tons of tweets flooding in from different accounts.

The table below summarizes the key criteria for the Big Three (maxiumu score is 5).
