If you still aren't using Twitter, boil some water, throw a pot of noodles in it, and allow your significant other to lash the hell out of you for the next 15 minutes. Not only has it taken the internet by storm, but it has also taken the damn sports world by storm and has become a daily fixture in the life of bloggers and athletes alike.
There will be a ton of Twitter posts to come in the near future, but we thought we'd start off with the 3 Twitter applications we use throughout our, oh so busy day of spamming the Portland Trail Blazers masses.
Twitterberry
This bad boy allows us to be mobile wannabe sports blogging moguls. Not only does it look sexy on your phone, but athletes like Shaq have dissed the iPhone to jump onto Twitterberry. And if that doesn't work for you, try holding up the phone extra high at the club Friday night so the ladies can see the little blue birdy tweeting around on the BB.
TwitterFox
I have a hell of a time with messaging programs or any of those all-in-one social media machines, so I use TwitterFox. It's an add-in to Firefox that sits in the bottom corner of your browser and constantly updates so you can quickly check on the latest Twitpic's from the self-absorbed. It runs light, updates at different intervals and overall is a nice app.
TwitterGadget
This little gadget allows me to continue tweeting throughout the day while at work without wasting text messages on my phone and getting caught by the man. Our little friend known as iGoogle uses this Twitter app and so far remains unblocked from my religulously related healthcare internet firewall. A must have for sure.
What Twitter apps are you using these days?

I mainly just use old school Twitter.com but occasionally use easytweets.com - makes it very easy to manage multiple accounts. Some people say there is no reason to have multiple accounts but I disagree. If you have a variety of businesses/websites you may have a different audience for each of them. For example, people who follow @JasonPeck for sports/social media/marketing stuff most likely won't be interested in my @NorthHillsBuzz account (unless they live near me).
I also like Tweetgrid for multiple searches in the same window.
I'm with you Jason. At some point, if I bring this site onto Twitter, I'll have a completely separate account than I do for my Blazers site. I know a ton of people think that the more followers the better, but I tend to grab followers that are specific to that account rather than just look for the masses.
