“Connect to the Twitter community”

by Cyril Roger

Twitterrific is a sleek desktop applications for the Twitter micro-blogging service. Fitted with an attractive dark grey interface, Twitterrific offers numerous ways to follow and handle your friends and tweets. Either view by most recently update or full update list, choosing to show only your friends or public tweets. You can refresh tweets anytime and even check your own Twitter page thanks to the buttons at the bottom of the page.

Twiterrific also integrates keyboard shortcuts, sparing you a few precious seconds while you're twittering away with your friends. The application is pretty discreet, and you'll notice it only pops up for new updates. You'll also hear a little bird tweet, which can be adjusted. I've had Twitterrific disconnect sometimes, yet trying again normally works. The only minor drawback to this latest version is that it now shows ads until you decide to pay for the software, yet that's a small price to pay for such a handsome application.

Twitterrific is a must desktop application for any Twitter addict out there.
