When Storify appeared on the collective journalism screen a few weeks back at TechCrunch Disrupt, it inspired a lot of oohs, ahhs and speculation as to how it would work for journalists. There are similar curation tools out there, like KeepStream and Curated.by, though they focus primarily on collecting tweets (Correction: KeepStream also allows for Facebook integration). Storify, on the other hand, allows a user to organize various media (text, documents, video, images) and social media (Twitter, Facebook, etc.) into an orderly, linear presentation. The story pieces retain all of their original links and functionality - and the full presentations are embeddable on any site.  It has a very easy-to-use search for social media keywords and works using a drag-and-drop functionality. In other words - it's easy multimedia for even the most technologically challenged journalist.

Twitter users of TweetDeck, check this out. Facebook Connect and Seesmic Desktop is a dream application for the frequent status updater, group lover, and social media meme tracker. Has multiple columns that can be rearranged via drag and drop, customizable groups, Twitpic functions, etc.

I started using Seesmic Desktop a few days ago and have found it to be much better than TweetDeck. One of the key features for me is that it allows you to manage multiple Twitter accounts.
