See the saved drafts of only one profile
When I'm going to post a draft, I see ALL the drafts of all the profiles I manage.
I would like that, if I select one (or two, or three) profiles to post with it/them, I only see the drafts of these accounts in the saved drafts.
1 voteGreat suggestion. This would be a great feature to implement.

Alerted if someone with huge klout tweets
Im monitoring geographic region and want to be alerted if someone with high Klout score tweets.
3 votesWe see how this suggestion would be practical to many HootSuite users. Nonetheless, we’d like to further gauge support for this feature.

Add a better support for facebook's "link" type posts
facebook has 4 kinds of posts:
- status
- photo
- link
- videoi want hootsuite to better support "link" type as well
currently when posting a link on hootsuite it acts as if a user is pasting a link to it's "status" line (smaller image, and text is required)
while using a "link" type, generates a bigger image, and added text is not mandatory9 votesHootSuite now supports all options except for video.

Create a light web version of HootSuite
I'd love to use HootSuite in an online version, like I could easily just sign in using my username/password and do all the basic things of HootSuite. :)
3 votesNeat idea, and something worth considering for the future.

Twitter Stream API
Twitter has a stream API which allows a live view of the users twitter stream. Documentation is here http://dev.twitter.com/pages/streaming_api. TweetDeck (and ChromeDeck), and Seesmic both support it, and it's a great feature, would be awesome to have it in hootsuite too.

show comments in assignment list
When a FB-posting is assigned, comments to that posting are not shown in assignment list.
as a consequence a team member must go back from the assigments list to the news-streem and has to search for the posting in order to be aware of comments.
very poor workflow management.
as a pro user i would have expected that to be solved.
15 votesThis is a great idea that would improve Facebook functionality.

Have a preference where a hoot sound is made when a tweet is posted.
How fun would it be if there was a setting that when you posted a tweet, a cute quick "hoot" sound is made. I'd love that. Please vote for this idea.
4 votesThis is a cute idea.

Add a 'lock' sign
Can you add a "lock" sign on the tweets so that we can see from the streams which Twitter account is private?
2 votesWe’ll examine if Twitter’s API provides this functionality.
-
Improve RSS support
Wanted: 1. More frequent updates, 2. Post-pending messages, 3. Caching un-sent posts from RSS feed for later (i.e. If settings say post no more than 2, and there are 3 new posts, just post two and save the remainder for next cycle).
6 votesWe hope to extend RSS functionality with a future release.

This feature does depend on the API calls available with each social network profile. However, if it is available, we’ll considering adding such a stream to HootSuite.
-
Edit profile
Be able to edit profile pic and other details for twitter
3 votesWe’ll see if Twitter’s API supports this.

Email Alert For New FB Page Post and @Mention
I would like an email alert when a someone posts on a facebook page's wall I am monitoring and also when a @mention is found. Greatly helps in quick feedback and customer relations.

Automatically mark tweets i've replied to as completed
I'm not assigning tweets because I'm the only one using Hootsuite, and it's easy to lose track of the @ replies I've responded to and those I still need to follow up on. It'd be great to have a 'complete' status or mark on messages I've responded to.
10 votesWe’re always looking at ways to add more information about tweets in stream.

open geolocated tweets in google maps
Make the included image map open the co-ordinates in google maps

IE9 Pinned Site
Internet Explorer 9 allows users to pin sites to the taskbar in Windows 7 with a feature called pinned sites http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/gg131029(VS.85).aspx.
If Hootsuite can change its favicon icon from the current 16x16 resolution to 32x32 then the HootSuite logo will look great on the Windows 7 desktop. This will allow users to run HootSuite from the desktop giving more reasons to switch from Tweetdeck or Seesmic.
3 votesWe’ll consider further ways to customize HootSuite in each supported web browser.

Schedule Facebook post for scheduled, but yet unpublished blog post
It's great that we can schedule facebook posts with the image, but the blog post has to be live to do this. I would love the ability to enter my blog admin credentials so when I schedule a week's worth of blog posts to auto post in the future I can also pre-schedule the facbook posts before the blog post has gone live. We need a way for hootsuite to get into the blog and pull the info. Or whichever way is best; the bottom line is: it doesn't do any good to schedule a facebook post for a blog…
31 votesWe continue to offer further ways to make HootSuite more user friendly to bloggers.

Auto-refresh Twitter/FB profile pictures next to "Send Now" button.
Even if I change my Twitter and Facebook profile pictures, the thumbnails next to the "Send Now" button (via browser) does not change.
It should change.
