If you bought the MacHeist nanoBundle2 many moons back, there was suppose to be an exclusive beta access to Tweetie 2 for Mac. However, things changed and Tweetie became Twitter’s official app.
Long story short, if you bought that nanoBundle, go check your mailbox. There is a little surprise from the folks at MacHeist.
Ctrl + Option + Command.
For many who uses multiple IM services (MSN, AOL, Google Chat, ICQ etc), the one application that I highly recommend is to use Adium. Currently it can support up to 15 different systems. With the latest beta (version 1.4b1), it added Twitter support into its list of supported services.
With this new inclusion, you can combine all your social networking chat tools into one. As the timeline is displayed within the existing Adium chat window, it will display it according to the message style you chose, and some of them might not be suitable for display a long list of twitter updates.
As seen on the image above, they have cleverly placed the common twitter functions (Retweet, Reply, Favorite and URL of the Tweet) within the tweet line with 4 simple icons. In the input field, it will also indicate the character count and will change the background to RED if it goes above the 140 character limit.
This new inclusion will surely be loved by those who have limited desktop real estate and want one less application running, but its interface will take some getting use to, especially in the face of existing apps like Twitterrific and Tweetie, just to name a few.
Included in this update besides Twitter support is also the addition of IRC support. This beta 1.4 however, is only for OS X 10.5 Leopard users (download site). So far, it is quite stable and everything still works well.
For OS 10.4 users, you can get the final (possibly) stable version 1.3.4 (download link).
Do you like the new Twitter support in Adium or are you going to stick with your existing Twitter client?
What it isn’t – a Twitter client. It doesn’t show you your friends’ Twitter nor fart when you swipe across a twit.
What it is – a Twitter-pad – for taking down your 140-characters notes that you can send to Twitter at a later time.
What it is – an app to let you jot down your 140-characters thoughts while you are offline/Airplane mode and publish them when you are online
What it is – just watch their awesome video to find out what it is.
