Hootsuite is quite useful. Unlike Twitter, you can schedule tweets and view your past scheduled tweets. They also provide a lot of different metrics (which I have yet to its full potential). The navigation is pretty good though I think some features could be added/moved around (for example, being able to schedule Instagram photos). But other than that, I give Hootsuite two thumbs up. Congratulations!!


I agree. scheduled tweets is to Hootsuite what filters is to Instagram. Turns out practically every person that does anykind of marketing with social media in the world wants it


I've always thought it was the multiple account management features. I personally as individual manage multiple accounts just running groups/orgs I do on the side. In addition my whole team shares the work of watching our Company account and replying/providing-content.

Schedule tweets are definitely awesome, we certainly are not using them enough. I assumed Companies like Buffer would be more specialized at that use case and had been meaning to check them out for that. Guess I should actually try what Hootsuite has built in.


gratuitous plug would you mind checking out http://streamscience.co and giving me feedback on it? Its designed to give close control over scheduling and giving advice on hashtag selection.


Tweetdeck does a good job with scheduled Tweets: https://web.tweetdeck.com/


Sure - porn may be a 'good' outlet but there have been studies that show that the more a guy watches porn, the more unrealistic his views are about sex. Just saying.

As for a 9 year old looking at porn, I think there's a difference at looking at nude art vs. porn and porn really should be cut off until the kid at least his puberty.

But I do agree with @petercooper's response as well.


Wow. I am surprised he was able to get out of jail. I am sure if I put something similar on twitter, my 6 followers would eventually read it and then reply 'oh, bummer.'


You should also probably post your social security number in case you don't post your schedules and we really need to find you to tell you that missing startup school is not ok.


Well, true but how offensive is it really if you say that you would rather not say how old you are?

I mean, women do it all the time.


It is great that more ordinary customers are starting to use Ubuntu. It is a great platform and if people are smart enough, it (Linux) will become the top used platform system anywhere.


Introverted people need to break out of their shell and 'just do things'. This applies to pretty much everything. If you fail, try, try again and you will eventually succeed whether you want to be able to socialize with people or learn a new language or whatever it is that you truly desire.


Introverts do not have a shell that needs breaking. We're not (necessarily) antisocial. We don't refrain from 'doing things'.

We just don't get energized from being around people. This doesn't mean we can't or don't. Like any aspect of temperament, it's mostly immutable: even a socially adept introvert (which I like to think I am) is still an introvert.

Wikipedia puts it well: "Introversion is not the same as shyness, though introverts may also be shy. Introverts choose solitary over social activities by preference, whereas shy people avoid social encounters out of fear."


Macs are known as gorgeous pieces of hardware and that seems to be their main functionality. As Neal Stephenson stated, they are polished and nice to look at, hence why the prices are jacked up but that is all that they have going for them. Nowadays, most things that are exuberantly expensive must be worth something and are therefore sought out and it becomes a trend.

If your best friend has a $3000 Mac monitor, why shouldn't you have one?

In my opinion, Dells are pretty sturdy machines though a bit hefty. I would like to get my hands on an HP computer though. That is a beaut.
