One of the biggest problems that new people face when it comes to using Twitter as an interactive tool is that they have trouble interacting with their followers.
The Twitter website itself is very poor for doing this and was not really designed for that purpose. But what really complicates it is when you are running multiple accounts with many thousands of followers. How on earth do you even begin to build meaningful relationships on Twitter like that?
The answer to that is very easy. I use a free tool called Seesmic Desktop. Watch this video to find out all about it…

Update 11 July 2010…
I no longer use Seesmic because it slowed down incredibly when I started to get a very large Twitter following. So I now run Tweetdeck which seems to handle the load of large numbers much better.
The reason I went with Seesmic back at the start of 2009 was because back then Tweetdeck couldn’t handle multiple Twitter accounts. Well didn’t they do a good job with changing that, becuase not only does Tweetdeck now accomodate multiple Twitter accounts it also handles many other social media platforms including Facebook.
Tweetdeck does exactly what you see in the video but heaps more and 10 times better, so go with Tweetdeck.
