9 Best Twitter Desktop Apps for Mac
Posted by ραятн ραтєℓ
Hello Friends,
Today I give you 9 Best Twitter Apps for Mac.
1. EventBox
This just-for-Mac app
is a favorite of many because it supports Twitter, Facebook, Flickr
integration, feed reading with Google Reader and internet trend watching
with Reddit and Digg . Keyboard shortcuts, hotkeys, Instapaper integration, and photo uploads to Flickr and Facebook make EventBox pretty nifty. It’s also got a very slick interface with a navigation menu on the left-hand side.
2. Mac Lounge
This app
is incredibly appealing for its dead simple, single column interface
and respectable feature set. We, of course, love the multiple account
support, but also appreciate saved searches, quick access to view
followers and following, and tweet options to link to tweet, copy tweet,
or copy tweet URL. There’s also an accompanying iPhone app, which syncs with the desktop version and greatly improves the app’s relevance.
3. Nambu
This really sophisticated Mac app
should be more than enough for any and all of your Twitter needs.
You’ve got access to your followers and friends, custom groups, search
(integrated with FriendFeed and One Riot), trends, tr.im and pic.im integration, multiple accounts, Ping .fm integration, filters, and three view options for a one or many column view of tweets.
4. Sideline:
Sideline
is just a search and trending topic app from Yahoo, but it does a darn
good job at satisfying those specific needs. You can view current
Twitter trends, select to see the three latest tweets or pop out as its
own saved search, and create custom search groups as tabs.
5. Skimmer:
It’s hard not to love this app. Not only is it beautiful to look at it, but it also tracks your favorite social sites. Skimmer’s
certainly not an application for the social media beginner, but power
users of Facebook, Flickr, YouTube, Blogger, and Twitter, will
appreciate the aggregation of content, filtering options, view types,
and enhanced content viewing experience.
6. Tweetie
A full-featured Twitter client which is
available in free ad supported and ad-free versions. This Desktop app
lets you view not only the tweets but also the entire conversation
history leading to that tweet. It provides you with an independent
compose windows that stay out of your way until you need them. Tweetie
for Mac also has search trends to let you find out the hottest trend in
Twitter. Other features include threaded DMs, user details, torn off
search, bookmarklet, and preferences.
7. Twibble Desktop
Twibble
is a bit of a riddle. It’s not a bad app when it comes to feature set,
but it’s also not the most intuitive. You can manage multiple accounts,
but all tweets are merged together in one stream. You can reply, DM,
fav, RT, and copy tweets, but you’ll have to hover over the tweet to
even know those behaviors are possible. You can also use keyboard
shortcuts, filter your tweets for keywords, or conduct searches that
open up in new windows, but Twibble just doesn’t seem to flow as easily
as we’d like it to.
8. Twitterific
Lets you both read and publish posts or
“tweets” using a clean and concise user interface designed to take up a
minimum of real estate on your Mac’s desktop. The app shows a scrolling
list of the latest tweets from your friends, or public feeds. Its
features include multiple Twitter account support, auto refreshing,
inline display of replies and DMs, shows no. of unread tweets, quickly
delete tweets, auto show/hide new tweets, single click access to user
pages and more.
9. TwitterPod:
This app isn’t known for its sophistication or advanced Twitter functionality. TwitterPod
is a basic single column Twitter app with an inline browser and the
ability to filter for just tweets with links. Its heyday has long since
passed, but original fan boys and girls may still be using this for
their twittering.
