Very well done. I’m a huge Tweet­deck fan.

I have done some con­sul­ting work with Peo­ple­Browsr too, but they have a way to go before their tool beco­mes more friendly. I haven’t tried their AIR app yet, but am ins­ta­lling it as I type. (multi-threading and multi-tasking)

Thanks for put­ting this together. Hoo­tsuite is an exce­llent tool. It also allows inte­gra­tion with ping.fm. So if you have more than one social site (Face­book, Plurk, identi.ca, etc.) you can post to mul­ti­ple feeds as well.
