I don't have very many follows yet, but it is still impossible to read all the messages - they just scroll by way to fast. I use Twhirl but like you, I am sure that I am not using it right. I have not heard of Tweetdeck and will have to look at it. But there's way to much to look at - and so less time to read tweets. And the cycle goes on.

I think Twitter is an AMAZING tool, but unless you're only following around 100 people or so, I don't see how you can keep up with every single tweet. I don't use Tweetdeck yet, but most of my friends do. Instead I simply use the search function in Twitter and keep an eye on my username 'jituppal'. That way I know everyone who has mentioned me in a tweet and can reply to them. Jit Jit Uppal´s last blog post..27 Free Marketing Tools I Couldn’t Live Without by Lee McIntyre

Great info Andre, I don't know how people do it. I have less than 100 people that I am following and even that gets more than I can handle at times. I actually haven't tried tweetdeck yet, but I am going to now. Sounds like a great way to organize myself when it comes to twitter. I have been using twhirl, but you can't seem to organize anything with it (Or I just haven't figured it out). That brings us to another point. There are so many applications being developed for twitter that I can't even keep up with those. Might be a good idea for another post.

I confess to not being enamored with twitter. It may well be my loss. But I'm not sure I need a few hundred additional distractions in my day. I am already fighting my attention deficit problems. Earl Netwal´s last blog post..Marketing to your Target Market

Currently I have over 4000 followers on Twitter and obviously it is not possible to read every Tweet.

I use Tweetdeck to manage my Twitter account and believe it to be the most wonderful Twitter app available. I have separate Groups set up for people I really want to read and watch my @replies like a hawk.

I love Twitter! You’ll find me @RicRaftis

I use tweet deck and have two groups added. One for must read people which is very select and do read most of those. The other group is for people that I want to give priority to when I have time. It also keeps your replies and direct messages separate. This allows me to make sure to keep the conversation going easily with those that are actually active. Just a tip the people that actually converse with me tend to go in the highest priority group. Mike Paetzold´s last blog post..Video Cash Explosion Review

I'm up to about 3700 followers and its more that not easy, its not possible to follow every tweet out there. Fortunately when stuff is directed at me its litteraly @michaelroark an those are never missed. I also use tweetdeck (who doesn't?) and have a couple groups setup 1 for specific folks I like to read and another for specific words I want it to catch. Catching specific words is nice because it watches the entire stream, both of those you follow and those you don't and shows tweets with that specific word in them. Its a great way to find folks who are talking about your niche! Michael Roark´s last blog post..World of Warcraft 1 to 450 Enchanting Guide

I agree Joel as there are a lot of tweets I miss but I try as best I can.

I use Tweetdeck as well, although not to it's fullest extent. But I think in Tweetdeck you can group the people you are following into different categories, to help you see and not miss Tweets from those that you really want to read. But I think most people (or all) do not read every single Tweet, they just can't. So as the person Tweeting, you have to understand that and figure out how your best way to Tweet is.
