Tweetie: First Impressions

[PureAinmhi]

14.95 for Tweetie. What a joke. If you pay for that then you deserve to die.

its clear: twhirl is more user friendly than tweetie

[vulcanusii]

I see your points, but for me the simple interface of Tweetie is the main selling point. On my part, less really is more.

Nice review and video is so clear! please tell me what recorder you use, i have been searching for a while and am stuck with CamTwist for now. the quality is poor :s please respond

You find right clicking confusing?

No wonder you use a Mac...

[ShakeAndBakeGuy]

I love Tweetie. Some of the things you said can be a whole lot quicker with keyboard shortcuts.

Post a Tweet: Alt-Enter

Timeline: Cmd-1

Mentions: Cmd-2

Direction Message: Cmd-3

Search: Cmd 4

But I understand if you prefer your mouse over keyboard shortcuts. And I'm not sure if they added the key commands later. But a good first impressions video.

I don't like the looks of Twhirl, kindergarten graphics aren't my thing. I'd like to use Tweetie if I got a Mac, but as I'm stuck with my PC I use an Adobe AIR app named Spaz. Spaz has the graphics of Tweetie, and the usability of Twhirl, it's nearly perfect from my point of view. =) Check it out! :P

You are wrong on a few things, you can simply hit the return button on the tweet. Nice tutorial though

I use Twitterific, iPod Touch and iMac. It just has a much nicer interface and is simpler.

I like tweetie. :) Thanks for including me in your video!

I personally prefer TweetDeck. it seems pretty similar to Twhirl

[TechPepsi]

in twirl, apple n for all the buttons

[ThatFreakinRandy]

Try Nambu! It's a great Twitter app for the Mac. I love it.

[cockyjeremy]

I like Lounge better than either of them.

Have you looked at Seesmic Desktop? I still prefer Twhirl, the interface is much cleaner. Lots of great things in Seesmic, but lots in Twhirl that it's missing. And that's surprising from a company that owns both programs. Seesmic is a total rewrite. Why not just take Twhirl and extend it?

I just use Twitterfox. Since im always on the browser, it works for me.

[snare94]

i like twhirl too, i just switched to tweetdeck. its alot bigger, and i like how all of the panels are all up front where you can see them

[mrea2]

Great comparison!

I've been using TweetDeck and haven't tried either Twhirl or Tweeite. Anyone like Twhirl better than TweetDeck...?

[lizzielizardlipz]

I prefer twhirl, tweetdeck is just too big and clunky.

[Brnboy313]

Twhirl is way to awesome for me to switch, when i tried the beta of Tweetie i just felt that it was the iPhone App ported to the mac. just not that great UI and i would never realize that i got new tweets without twhirls notification.

[nickseckler]

Pretty cool. I might give twirl a whirl. heh.
