Well…at least anti-social according to some. There was a recently discussion in the AllThingsWordPress group on TweetWorks about using automated tools for tweeting when you publish a new blog post. It’s a pretty lengthy discussion in the thread; and quite honestly, I’m surprised at the number of folks that view auto bots that tweet for you when you publish a blog post to be anti-social.

I use Twitter Tools for this very purpose.  It saves me a step so I’m multi-tasking and can accomplish more things at once than without using this handy tool.  Like I mentioned in my post on the Auto DM Controversy I send out an auto DM to new followers, and I use a bot to tweet when I publish a new blog post. That’s really about it.  These bots are a time management tool for me and I love it.

But apparently not everyone feels this way. I weigh in on my thoughts on the use of Twitter bots in the video below. Thought I’d use video – as it’s more ‘social’.

Please share your comments on the use of Twitter bots: How do you feel about the use of Twitter bots? Do you use them? If so, for what purposes?
