Productivity Tools for Twitter Newbies

I have a number of friends that want to get on Twitter and really want to start using Twitter for all of it’s glory. I promised them that I would provide them a list of Twitter Apps, Tools and Websites, and Tutorials for Do’s and Don’ts to help them get ramped up quickly.

So, I’m compiling a list of Productivity Tools for Twitter Newbies. Yeah, I know that they can go to http://twitter.com/downloads for a quick list and to http://twitter.pbwiki.com/Apps for an extensive list, but that’s a HUGE list, with no user review, so just like I would do, they would have to dive into an ocean of apps to get to the perls of usable, functional apps.

So I posted on Twitter for help, and so far, here’s some of the helpful tips so far:

gabrielmunteanu @yesyes it’s called MyTwitter Toolbar .it’s everything there!

exerciseguy @yesyes twitpwr.com, twitpic.com, viraltweets.com, tweetdeck, tweetlater.com

Kewl. It’s a start. I use Twitpic.com and TweetLater.com. TweetDeck is too CPU intensive for my system until I upgrade and I’m not interested in ViralTweets.com. And I’ll have to lookup MyTwitter Toolbar.

Other than that… what are your favorite Twitter Apps, Tools, Websites, and Tutorials?
