I regularly use the schedule function in both TweetDeck and Hootsuite for my various twitter accounts. The type of content in those tend to be NON-time-sensitive, factoids, resources, jokes, questions, etc.

And actually, many of my pre-scheduled tweets are the ones that get replies and re-tweeted, so it seems to be working.

I cannot make up my mind on this topic. I run the twitter feed for the magazine I write for, and I've debated scheduling tweets with links to stories, as well as using it to post links multiple times in hopes of getting them out there more. However, I have personally unfollowed people who tweet the same things multiple times, so I don't want to lose followers by sounding like a robot.

Perhaps I'll give it a shot.

Tweets in my mind are more intimate and personal. Scheduling them seems to be just a bit contrary to that perception. With that I say in general tweets shouldn't be scheduled. I do see the argument that if you are tweeting about your new product/service/widget that scheduling can make sense and I would agree with scheduling to coincide with a release.
