Just to clarify
a point, “computer industry” is actually a generic term since there are many
sub-categories under this. Some may be working in the computer web design or
web development industry. Some may be in the internet marketing industry, and
this in itself can have different sub-categories (SEO, social media, e-mail,
etc.). Others may be in the hardware or software category usually called
technical support.
Because of this,
we selected the most common tools that virtually anyone working in the computer
industry, no matter what category, can more or less use either directly for
their work or in relation to it. We chose not to include the really common and
default tools that virtually everyone may already have like browsers,
browser-based online tools, and anti-virus tools.
Hootsuite/Tweetdeck
Managing
multiple Twitter accounts is next to impossible even for the most hardworking
social media marketer. Third party solutions like Hootsuite/Tweetdeck can solve
this, especially when companies have two or more Twitter accounts (usually
opened by different departments) and in each account are numerous clients and
followers, all potential customers. These tools allow marketers to organize all
their Twitter accounts in a single interface and monitor all those accounts
using just a single screen.

A
pair of awesome noise cancelling headphones
You might be thinking, “Headphones are tools?”
But if you’re someone who wants to really focus, is a true millennial, or was
born in the 1980’s, then you might even be thanking the makers of noise
cancelling headphones. Bose is usually the best choice for many, though the Dr.
Beat brand is making a popular headway. Many people are actually used to
listening to music while working 8 hours a day, and it helps them really focus.
It helps concentrate on work since some people do get bothered by co-workers
talking over the phone or playing with their pen. Some even use headphones to
block off the sound of clicking keyboards.
