I think, these twitter methods are too much for one person to adapt to!
A Top 5 would be genuine!
I say Ping.FM is the best because it posts to Plurk, Twitter, FB and alot more.
It also has a nifty URL shortener. Check my post out, its Ping.FM’d

Great list – nice to see that there are so many options out there. After the purchase of Summize, I wonder if one of these ‘multiple posts’ apps will be the next big acquisition.
