Buffer Review

Hey Guys,

So I found out about a cool web-based program called Buffer (Find it here). It is used to schedule social media posts and spread them out. It works on the principle that you have a schedule, for me it is to tweet 4 times a day (at set times), and when you write a post in buffer, it goes into your queue. Your queue is your list of outgoing posts, so when one of your set times arrives, the post at the top of your queue gets tweeted. This is useful as it spreads out your posts so that they aren't all clumped together.

The interface is very nice and well polished, as can be seen in this picture:

There is also a chrome extension that opens up a posting window for ease of posting without having to open the web page. Here is a screenshot of it: 
And finally, the mobile app. This allows you to post via buffer using your iOS or Android device. Again, this app is very polished and nice to use. Here is a shot of it: 

In conclusion, Buffer is a great program and very easy to use, but only use it if you have a reason - If you do then great! Definitely use it, and if you don't, then you can still use it, but you may not be able to use it's full capabilities.
