TwitterGadget
April 9th, 2009
If you’re not a fan of Tweetdeck or Twirl and are looking for another Twitter client, check this out: TwitterGadget. This client allows you to submit status updates via iGoogle or Gmail. I won’t lie – this client looks pretty perky – and offers several nice features (the option to turn on/off thumbnails, timestamps, additional info about the user by hovering over the user’s icon, etc.).
However, I don’t think I’ll be using it. Why? I think it’s because 1) I’m stuck in my ways since I’ve found a method that works well for me, and 2) I’d still want to have several searches open (my own name, so I know what people are talking about in real time and other major news sources in the area), which means I may as well have several Twitter tabs open in a window anyway. -Why not use Tweetdeck then? Unfortunately for me, Tweetdeck doesn’t keep track of all of my friends. Lame.
But if you have a chance to play with TwitterGadget, please let me know what you think! I’m always looking for ways to be more efficient!
