I utilize Tweetdeck to manage my daily Tweeting habit. Tweetdeck is a desktop application that organizes your Tweets into columns, allows you to update your Facebook status when sending your Tweets and create custom columns to organize people and topics.

Here are the 5 productive tools that I use with Tweetdeck.
1. Create Custom Columns
Tweetdeck provides columns such as : All Friends, Replies, Direct Messages, Favorites, TwitScoop and Facebook Friends. You can pick and choose which columns you want to use or create some of your own. Within the top left toolbar is a Group Icon and a Search Icon. The Group feature allows you to create a column of specific people. The Search feature allows you to search by keyword or topic and then it automatically creates a column based upon that keyword.
2. Update Your Facebook Status
This feature will allow you to update your Facebook status when you send a Tweet. Tweetdeck allows you to pick only specific Tweets to update to Facebook, not all of your Tweets will show up on Facebook if you don’t want them too. Simply check or uncheck the box next to the Facebook box when sending a Tweet.
3. Filter Your Columns
Each column features a filter button at the bottom of the column. This can come in handy when you want to see if people are tweeting about a specific keyword or topic. Simply click the Filter icon and type in your keywords.
4. Manage Retweets, Replies & Direct Messages
One of the most productive tools on Tweetdeck is the power to Reply (@) , Retweet (RT) or Direct Message (DM) with two clicks of your mouse. Simply hover over the photo of the person next to the Tweet you want to take action on and a sub menu will appear. Once you click the appropriate icon your message will appear in your Tweet window at the top of Tweetdeck and you are one click away from sending off the Tweet.
5. Shorten URL’s.
Just below the Tweet window is a handy tool called Shorten URL. Simply paste in a long URL and click the ‘shorten’ button and your new link will appear in the Tweet window. You can also select from 6 different URL Shortening services from the drop down menu.
Those are my top 5 productivity tools that I use on Tweetdeck. How about you? What types of tools do you like to use to manage your Tweeting habit?
