The first issue I found was how unorganized it seemed to be. I understand that there is a moderator available to facilitate the flow of conversation, but at around 20+ people, the moderator became ineffective. My computer continuously flooded with ten to fifteen new tweets at once to answer people’s questions about Klout. I found myself struggling to follow one string of questions to another, and was even too overwhelmed to ask one myself.

By the time I thought of question number four, the group was on question ten. Another issue was the intense focus it demanded on participants, which is also tied to the lack of organization. If I could make a recommendation for the overall process, it would be to limit the amount of participants in a chat to a handful at most.

So we’ve been examining all the ways people can measure us based on our social media impact. So I’m happy to turn the tables and give my opinion on social media apps. After testing out six social media management apps, I have decided that HootSuite fits me the best, by far. Here’s why: TweetDeck: Frustrating for the non-savvy-social-media user like me. I was not keen on downloading an app to my desktop when my computer’s already slow enough. Plus, the pop-up notifications drove me mad. Seesmic: Eh. SocialOomph: An eyesore- I would have gladly recommended this site for our Graphic Design website renovation project if I could.

TweetGrid: Another poorly-designed, impossible to navigate eyesore. Monitter: Easy to use, but few tools and not much to it. But wait! HootSuite: Easy to navigate, easy to customize, easy to look at. So if you’re looking for an app to make your social media interactions easier, HootSuite is the way to go (especially if you are a beginner/intermediate user like me).
