macfsh, I checked on tweetdeck and it shows your tweet as number 7 or 8. It's hard because it shows a whole whack of them tweeted at the same minute and it doesn't show seconds. The twitter contests are frustrating!!

thanks tray. I had done a search on the #tag and it showed me 5th. I don't know anything about tweetdeck but I might have to check it out. I really thought I had that one.

twitter is still feeling like a bit of a maze to me. i'm trying but no luck yet!

I don't understand how twitter orders them it's especially hard for contests when they don't say the seconds it was posted at. On tweetdeck I think I searched posts with @TassimoCanada but I'm not sure.

I have been hoping to win one too, wasn't online today for them. Good luck!!

You can also see new tweets as they happen.

It is a free download. Here is the link: http://www.tweetdeck.com/beta/
