Tools for publishing to Twitter on a schedule?

[MannDude]

Curious if any tool like this exists. There is a vpsBoard Twitter account (@vpsBoard) that I manage that I link to noteworthy discussions, but lately have been lacking. Was wondering if there was a tool available that I could use to publish to Twitter, but also have the option of doing so in scheduled intervals?

Namely, I don't want to do a once a day thing where I post multiple threads at once. I'd like to be able to just submit them to a queue and have them published throughout the day.

It'd also come in handy for DailyServerDeals as I see the next offer in the queue and thus will know the URL of said offer. I could set it up so everyday at noon it posts the link to Twitter for DailyServerDeals (@DailyServer) and I don't have to be around at noon to actually do it.

Any ideas?

https://www.socialoomph.com/ they have a free version (pro version also includes Facebook, LinkedIn, and additional features).  I've used them for  a couple of years.

Hootsuite should do this. You should probably hook the twitter API into dailyserverdeals and have it publish at the same time.

I've had a lot of luck with TwitterFeed in the past. If you have a RSS feed setup with DailyServerDeals it can automatically post a link/title to Twitter from that feed.

Buffer: http://bufferapp.com/

There are also Twitter apps on most platforms that have Buffer integration.

Did anyone tried some of the suggested tools? Does any tool allow to filter content? Don't want to get everything posted on twitter.

@peterw, I've been using Twitterfeed.com since '09, with great success.. But, I post everything in my RSS feed to Twitter..
But, I guess you can set up a filter in something like Yahoo Pipes, and then use that new RSS feed with Twitterfeed..

Hootsuite is what buycpanel uses, I'd look into that.

I think "Buffer" (http://bufferapp.com) is made for such purpose. Most input are to be done on its browser extension, though.


If I recall it correctly it has pretty decent Tweet scheduling feature.

Yeah, I've got the notification mail about that hack incident, Buffers said only a minority of users got hacked.

Fortunately, it seems I'm not one of those minority of users.

I appreciate your giving heads-up to other user though. I agree this incident needs to be mentioned.

Hmm, I think Tweetdeck also had the functionality of scheduled posting last I checked...
