Choosing a Twitter iPhone app seems to go something like this for me: I play around with one, mess around with another, poke at a third, go back to the first…and because they all largely have the same features, the decision becomes acutely personal — I’ve picked one that just feels right to me (which happens to be TweetDeck).

Then HootSuite came along on Thursday and messed up my whole process — it contains two new features not yet seen on a Twitter app: the ability to fire off tweets at a predetermined time; and a screen that tracks Twitter statistics.

Of course, it also features integration with the HootSuite web app, photo sharing and all the other requisite stuff that any Twitter app worth its salt should boast.

HootSuite isn’t free, but it’s on sale at the App Store for two bucks (a dollar off) till December 17th. Stay tuned for a head-to-head comparo later this week.
