Need a twitter client? Read/WriteWeb has a guide for you
Read/Write Web (RWW) post an article on a Guide to the world’s most popular Twitter clients yesterday. I was actually planning to research for a post on twitter clients myself. Looking at this article, I would not have written such a comprehensive guide.
This article is written by Marshall Kirkpatrick who is very experienced in RSS feed and twitter use. He has written an entertaining post on how twitter pays his rent. If you can use the information from twitter to pay your bills, you are a guru, man!
Some thoughts on the article:
-
Web interface for twitter - Very clunky. Unless you just want to post your twit, and not do anything else, go for a third party client.
Twitterrific - I have read raves reviews for the mac version. But if you are a windows user, use Teletwitter. A Twitterrific clone.
TwitterFeed - The only one that can auto publish my blog RSS feed to twitter. I have tried Twitbacker and Pingtwitter, but both did not update my blog feed.
Twitbin - This is what I am currently using now. It is nice to have your twitter stream but Twitbin is as unstable as the twitter web. The major letdown for me is its inability to remember my login details. Super-hassle.
Snitter - I am going to try out this next. Just not sure I want to install the bulky Adobe Air just for this.
Which Twitter client are you using? Is twitter really giving you more up to date news? Tell me in the comments below.
