Twitter client

Post by Shatterhand »

Does anyone know any good Windows based Twitter client?

I've tried a few, but all of them are extremely bloated and takes heaps of my PC memory. I used to use Echofon with Firefox, but as now I use Chrome as my main web browser, this option isn't valid anymore.

So, any suggestions?

Twhirl and Tweetdeck are good, I use Twhirl though since Tweetdeck was a little tough to get used to after using Twhirl.

After 3 hours of lots of programs open on my PC (Including Visual Studio C# 2008 and Google Chrome with several tabs open), Tweetdeck was by FAR the most memory consuming process on my computer. That's freaking ridiculous.

I just got a Chrome extension which is perfect for me :) Chromed Bird is the name.

Tweetdeck has been my favorite from what i've tried. But yeah, being a Air program does rather suck.

It's still the best designed on the multi-plat clients. I just wish they fix that god damn spell check error.
