I’m a pretty new user of Twitter and like most users of Twitter, I don’t like the need to go onto their website to see my subscribed tweets or to post new tweets. This is where this application comes in. Twitterific allows you to manage your entire twittering from your computer easily and simply. The interface is quite slick and it works as a kind of mini widget on your computer, stored either in the menu bar or in the dock (or both) depending on your preference. The interface is one of the things that I really like because it does make it simple and easy for me to view the tweets as they come, and easy to reply and post my own. If you have Growl installed then you’ll get even better notifications when you have new tweets to read.
The price is pretty fair. You can use it for free only you need to see ads all every hour which isn’t that big of a deal. If you don’t want to though, or if you want to support the Iconfactory people, you can buy the application for $14.95.
All in all the application is really a must have for any mac user active on Twitter. It makes it all a lot easier on there with it.
Twitterific
The Twitterific application is great way to access Twitter on your iPhone. I recently posted a review of the Twitterific desktop application and what I said there, mostly holds through here. It works really well for posting Tweets from the iPhone and it does it with a very slick interface.
The application can take advantage of the location features and update your twitter location on your page with your longitude and latitude. You can also quickly take a photo and tweet it.
You have two options on getting the application in the App store. Either you can get the free one that doesn’t have all functionality such as two themes and get ads. Or you can get the application at its premium version that costs $9.99.
