Sending out the same tweet from all accounts is an interesting concept and one I hadn't thought of. I have to think about that. Simon Julia

I didn't even consider the multi-language option, so thank you for pointing that out. There is a read screen in BrightKit, its viewable once you select the account you want to work with. Simon Larry

Splitweet has this option and I really liked it. Now I am more torn again about which to use. The good thing is that I am set up on both and I can pop between the two programs depending on my needs. SIDE NOTE: Both need to add the option of being able to see your followers so you can email new followers etc. Basically I am saying I don't want to have to go over to Twitter and log in for anything. :) SIDE NOTE 2: Why Twitter just doesn't offer this itself I wonder. Have a great day.

I use Spanish but many other are available as well. - Mark tweets as Favorite ( Splitweet: Y, Brightkit: No ) - Reply a message while you are in the context ( Splitweet: Y, Brightkit: No ) - Direct message someone while reading( Splitweet: Y, Brightkit: No ) - Favorites navigation( Splitweet: Y, Brightkit: No ) - The Brand's mention! I love it. In short, I really like the Brightkit interface and it's handy when you want to create content for ONE account only. If you, like me, want to publish on all your blogs and personal accounts that you have published a new blog post, with brightkit this is not possible. You have to jump profile over and over. And whats's worst, it's not a tool for keeping yourself up to date, since you cannot follow the messages. There is no READ panel, and that for me, is like speaking without hearing first. Hi Simon,

Congratulations for the detailed article, although I would like to complete the comparison table with _important_ criteria (I failed in favour of Splitweet, I’ll tell some reasons):

- Update many accounts at once ( Splitweet: Y, Brightkit: No )
- Read ALL accounts activity in the same screen ( Splitweet: Y, Brightkit: No )
- Multiple language support ( Splitweet: Y, Brightkit: No ) … I use Spanish but many other are available as well.
- Mark tweets as Favorite ( Splitweet: Y, Brightkit: No )
- Reply a message while you are in the context ( Splitweet: Y, Brightkit: No )
- Direct message someone while reading( Splitweet: Y, Brightkit: No )
- Favorites navigation( Splitweet: Y, Brightkit: No )
- The Brand’s mention! I love it.

In short, I really like the Brightkit interface and it’s handy when you want to create content for ONE account only. If you, like me, want to publish on all your blogs and personal accounts that you have published a new blog post, with brightkit this is not possible. You have to jump profile over and over. And whats’s worst, it’s not a tool for keeping yourself up to date, since you cannot follow the messages. There is no READ panel, and that for me, is like speaking without hearing first.

I noticed these issues with Splitweet, but assumed they were all thes same. It was aggrivating to have to switch back into "log in" mode for these other tools on each of my accounts. While I am now commited to changing over to Brightkit, I am going to miss Splitweet's brand tracking. That was definitely a nice feature, but not enough to keep me. Thanks for the Twitter mentiion as well. :) Julia Lilly - 360 Admin Impressive Review! I noticed these issues with Splitweet, but assumed they were all thes same.
