There are literally thousands of tools you can use to share your life through Twitter. If you are a power user, clients like Seesmic Desktop and TweetDeck are built just for you. However, if you are like most Tweeple and do not want Twitter to consume your life, NutshellMail can keep you engaged in the conversation on your schedule.
Despite the banter about email being dead, most of us spend the majority of our computing time in our email inbox. Given the high volume of messages flowing into your inbox, the constant update emails sent by Twitter can only add to the clutter. In addition, casual users may find Twitter desktop clients to be a distraction.
Enter NutshellMail….This free service keeps track of all your Twitter activity and even lets you send tweets through your email inbox. NutshellMail works by sending you a consolidated email update of all your activity on a pre-set schedule you can define. I get my updates every three hours, which alert me to new followers, quitters, @replies, direct messages and the last 20 tweets from tweeple I follow. But that’s not all! Through NutshellMail, I can update my status, send dm’s, @replies, retweet messages, follow new users and unfollow quitters through email.
There has been a lot of buzz about tools like Qwitter not working properly. NutshellMail has proven to be a reliable and useful service that keeps you engaged and productive at the same time. If you want to join the Twitter party, but also need to live in the meatspace, NutshellMail may be the tool just for you.
In addition, NutshellMail can also keep track of activity from Facebook, MySpace, LinkedIn and new messages from your alternative email accounts.
