It seems more and more attention is being placed on how to convert Twitter into a productivity tool. We’ve certainly seen an increase in the number of helpful Twitter bots which continue to bring a lot of useful functionality to the ubiquitous messaging platform.

We’ve covered some of these in the past but it’s a good assortment of time saving tips and services to get a bit more out of your Twitter account.
