Friendfeed all the way, especially with the rooms where people share links that I find highly useful to look at!

Am I the only one who got excited thinking this was about a guide to sites dealing with the slow FOOD movement? Oh well. Clever title and good tips!

While it's still in (very) early development, some friends and I are working on a web-based Twitter client called twalala that allows you to control what you see, and more importantly, what you don't see, in your twitterstream. It allows you to filter your stream by keyword or by person. We're getting ready to release a more stable version and would be keenly interested to get feedback from Mashable readers.
I like TweetDeck. I use only one screen - the TwitScoop screen - in this way I can see what's currently on Twitter's agenda. I will use the groups features but I like to see a mashup with Twellow. It should help saving time creating generic groups like "Social Media" or Sport. It will also help bringing Twellow to my desktop.
For the rest of my need I use Twhirl. I run them both side by side.
Good review, Thanks, Keren

TweetDeck is one of the few apps I've found that makes Twitter better. But don't go out and buy a new monitor for it. Get a desktop switching app. Leopard's Spaces works. Setup a desktop just for TweetDeck and jump over to it whenever you want.

Tweetdeck is my app of choice for desktop. I like the new version with the ability to remove tweets. I like Twitterrific for iphone.

Thanks for including us, Stan!
We're pretty excited about the new site, since so many of the new/changed features are based directly on user requests. So of course we're very much looking for feedback at this point to improve the user experience even more.
We've been seeing awesome stuff from third party developers who've integrated our functionality too, like Daisy Feed for iPhone and Read It Later for pretty much everybody.
We're also working on more tutorials, both non-video (to make them more accessible to some folks), and topic targeted (e.g. "PostRank for brand management"), so requests are welcome there as well.

Tweetdeck is a killer app for your social media needs. A drag and drop function with Flickr/Facebook would make it even better.

I also use TweetDeck. Its intuitive interface and the possibility to create different groups (for news, blogs, sports etc.) are the main features I was looking for.
I like Feedly (Firefox 3 only, I believe): leverages off google reader and displays in the order it thinks I would want to read them

How does readburner work? Does google have an API that exposes the most read stories?

what I would like is some way to dump my feeds into a service and have it group the related items that come up a la Google News/Techmeme. maybe you can do that with Y! Pipes? but I haven't figured out that voodoo yet.
moving on, I think this just convinced me to finally try out TweetDeck. Though I honestly don't see how much value you're gonna get out of just seeing tweets vs. friendfeed or even socialmedian. maybe I don't use twitter in a way (yet) that would make it useful to me. I guess I'll find out.
For ReadBurner, I use it and RSSMeme. RSSMeme tends to give more volume, +duplicates, but I'm still haven't figured out how they match up against each other. Either way I still just slap both feeds on top of all the other feeds. hah, in that sense I tend to use filtered sources not to reduce the noise, but to help guide me through it.
PostRank looks interesting, but I think I would need something like that integrated into my feed reader so that I would have the option of viewing feeds in channels, but also standalone. It's the same issue I have with using Y! Pipes in the sense that it hides the underlying source.
Hm... good overview of the services, got me thinking. thanks for reminding me about Y! Pipes too, gave me some ideas there I have to think through now.
Yes, you're right, it is a combination of Yahoo Pipes, Twitter filtering and selecting good ol' RSS sources. Have you checked out Telexer, an AIR-based "feed reader for serious news addicts"? Can I give the url here? its http://www.telexer.nl - I have this running the whole day when I'm at the computer, and it notifies me of breaking news, but doesn't overfeed me :-). It's not meant to scan a huge number of blogs with, but to follow the major news sites, or specialist topics etc. And to boot, it looks really cool on my desktop.

Seriously great post - I just discovered Tweet Deck - an aside from filtering - it makes some twitter work flow very efficient
