The beauty of Twitter is that it is simple, short and fast. When something happens in the world, more often than not, Twitter carries news of it first.
From earthquakes to elections, mundane to momentous, Twitter tells us what’s going on and who’s saying what. It lets us take the pulse of humanity.
But Twitter is also a firehose, a never-ending, unfiltered stream of characters. Not all of it is helpful, wanted or useful. You need to tame it, bend it to your will, filter it. Or it will run you over.
Tools help you make sense of Twitter.
In this guide you’ll find the little bits of technology that nonprofits actually use to make Twitter better. A great deal of them are free. Most take time and a little bit of elbow grease.
Do try some, especially Hootsuite. If you’ve been frustrated by Twitter in the past, Hootsuite just might make a believer and a power user out of you.
* A quick note: Twitter tools come and go all the time. These tools all
