As you start getting more involved with Twitter, managing a large number of people whom you follow becomes a major problem. That's because as you follow more people, it becomes more difficult to pay attention to your favorite tweeple. (That's Twitter-speak for people.)
However, there's a great 3rd party application called TweetDeck that allows you to create smaller groups of people. By creating these subgroups of people you can make sure you don't miss the tweets of your favorite tweeple.
For example, I've created one group called "Core" which includes industry leaders, friends, and other people who have continually helpful or clever tweets. I have another group called "Mainers" where I track the tweets of interesting people near our offices in Portland, Maine.
To learn more about how to use TweetDeck check out the video below, or watch TweetDeck & Twitter: Better Manage Your Tweeple at YouTube.
TweetDeck is free to try, but if you like it, please make a donation at TweetDeck.com. Thanks!
