For iPhone it's Tweetie, but HootSuite is getting close to taking the top spot all around. (And self-servingly... Themeleon is pretty sweet)
Share on Twitter Share on Facebook
Twitter or Facebook?
Right now Twitter is winning. Facebook fan pages / groups just aren't feeling as connected... maybe we're doing it wrong.
Share on Twitter Share on Facebook

What are some big Twitter faux pas?
Auto DM'ing what is supposed to be a "personal" message... is probably my least favorite thing.
