Cons: Ads in the Newsfeed; confusing navigation

Similar to TweetDeck (reviewed below), allows you to update multiple social media accounts at once: Aside from Twitter, you can also check your Facebook, Google Buzz, or Salesforce feeds. However, although it supports other social networks, Seesmic really works well only as a Twitter client. Facebook and Google Buzz images come out tiny and grainy, and switching between different accounts isn’t as fluid as it is on TweetDeck.

As with the official Twitter app, Seesmic’s greatest strength lies in its simplicity. Quickly posting a picture or status is easy, and you can rapidly scroll through your Newsfeed to find interesting tweets or updates.

Pros: Simple and easy to update your status
