I have been a TweetLater user for some time now, although it hasn’t been my primary Twitter management tool for some time.  Instead I have been using HootSuite as TweetLater had some significant performance issues for a bit a couple of months ago.

But with there recent enhancements, I am seriously looking to re-evalute that decision…

TweetLater has just added a super new function, read below:

Nobody needs to tell you that direct message SPAM is ever increasing on Twitter. Just try and wade through your DM inbox on some days.

And TweetLater contributes to this problem~but now they are going to make their users life much better

We have just launched our brand-new integrated Direct Message Manager, where you can manage the DMs of all your Twitter accounts on one single page, in one integrated view.

From that page you can DM the senders, unfollow or block them, forward the DM to someone else, and more.

But even more powerful are the SPAM rules that you can define. The system will apply your rules every time you open or refresh your Direct Message Manager, and get rid of any unwanted DMs.

You can tell the system to just delete a DM when you mark it as SPAM, or delete it and unfollow the person, or delete it and block the person, etc.

Furthermore, you can also enter keyphrases that we must monitor. If someone sends you a DM that contains one of those keyphrases, we will automatically apply your SPAM rules to that DM.

In addition, you can also tell the system to look at what other TweetLater users think of person who sent you a DM. If someone else has already marked it as SPAM, you can tell us to automatically mark it as SPAM on all your Twitter accounts as well.

The Direct Message Manager is available to TweetLater Professional users (and those on the free trial of TweetLater Professional).

In keeping with our commitment, this powerful new feature comes at no additional charge.

You can access the Direct Message Manager by logging in to your TweetLater account, clicking the DMs menu tab, and then the DM Manager sub-menu tab.

Having used HootSuite (which I like fine) to manage my multiple Twitter account I was surprised to find that TweetLater.com was actually more functional – or at least for me.

I sent a Tweet out talking about TweetLater and one of the relies suggested that it was “harder” to use.  Now I am kind of a techie, so I didn’t find it that difficult.  That said, the user interface is way different and that is probably where the “difficulty” comes from.

So I decided to create the video above to help people following me that might want to use TweetLater but find it confusing.

Now this was a spur of the moment idea, so don’t expect professionalism here    And I have been using TweetLater for about 10 hours max.  So I don’t know all the ins and outs – as the video will definitey show!

If you enjoy it – reply to one of my tweets – I watch replies more than tweets.
