The micro-messaging service Twitter became popular in part due to the thousands of different ways to post and view Tweets…but what are the most popular ways to share your Tweets with the world?
The Twitter analytics service TwitStat is continually running the numbers and provides us with the following, fascinating list. Unsurprisingly, most users post from the Twitter website, but the desktop app TweetDeck is a very popular way to post - more than 10% of the users surveyed were posting from it (see our TweetDeck vs Twhirl review for more info on TweetDeck).
When the Twitter search service Summize became popular, Twitter acquired it. Would it make sense, then, for Twitter to buy TweetDeck, considering its huge lead in the desktop Twitter software market?
