- Alright now that we have a sense of what Seesmic Desktop is let's try to put this altogether and apply this to some cases in which Seesmic Desktop can help our users. Here we have the case of using Seesmic Desktop for a Community Manager. Stay relevant and on top of your game - Every brand needs to keep an eye on the competition to see how they can improve. They also need to be aware on how other brands are approaching the same community as you are. Here are some tips on how a community manager can get a leg up on this game. Set up basic Twitter searches. It's simple and easy to see real-time user generated content about a brand. You are not just googling information about a brand but rather you are looking at what your users are saying about your brand.
