HootSuite continues to rack up the awards.

Its latest win came this week at the 2010 Mashable Awards, where it was named Best Social Media Management Tool.

Developed by Vancouver-based HootSuite Media, the app allows users to update multiple Twitter, Facebook, and LinkedIn accounts and schedule posts.

The app, which recently moved to a freemium model, is available on the web and for Android, BlackBerry, iPad, and iPhone.

It started out in 2008 as the Twitter client BrightKit.
