Twitter this evening caught users off guard by acquiring Atebits, the creator of Tweetie. The deal will put author Loren Brichter in Twitter's mobile team and make Tweetie.

Tweetie offers a number of features that let you use Twitter more quickly and--dare I say it--perhaps even more productively. For instance, the new tweet window (accessible by a customizable, universal keyboard shortcut) is separate from Tweetie's window. [ Beware the and see why these. . ] This flexibility allows you to close the main Tweetie window, removing the distractions of your friends' tweets, while keeping the program running, so that you can continue to publish your 140-character musings.

Clicking between your friends' tweet list, mentions, and direct messages, for instance, will quickly slide the current list up or down to make way for the new one. Clicking the icon of a second account in the left sidebar will slide it up to the top of the window and reveal its own buttons for mentions and direct messages. Double-clicking a reply will employ a fancy fade-zoom, revealing a list of all the back-and-forth tweets by participants. For a functional UI finish, small blue badges appear next to the timeline, mentions, and direct message sections to inform you of new messages. They also appear below the icons for your other accounts, so you know whether it's worth switching over.If mining the Twitter community's thoughts on current events, a product, or other trends is your game, searches can be separated into their own window for persistency's sake. However, Tweetie does not yet offer much in the way of the advanced search options at, though you can manually use operators like 'from:' and hashtags.Loren Brichter, the developer behind atebits, has not yet warmed up to the popular custom groups feature that other clients like TweetDeck employ.

Another con is the hidden “follow” feature, for this, you need to go to the drop-down menu. One final con is the lack of auto-complete for any Twitter handles, so this makes responding to common friends harder. “I feel this is a great effort by the app developers of Tweetie to have created an app that competes with some of the best in the industry.

Sure enough, there will be gaps in features, but considering they have an iPhone app and now developed a Mac app, I’m positive this application would do well,” says Rahul Varshneya, President of Arkenea. Conclusions This is the Twitter client that all Mac users have been waiting for. It is much more advanced than the basic Twitterific. On the other side of the scale are the two resource hogs; TweetDeck and Seesmic Desktop that use Adobe’s AIR platform, and we all know where that leads to.

The posting window even has a drop-down menu for switching between accounts for those who post under different names. When it comes to photos, you can simply drag pictures from the Finder onto Tweetie's posting window to automatically upload and share them via your choice of Twitter-friendly image-sharing services. A bookmarklet will also let you quickly tweet a Web link from your browser with a handful of Twitter-friendly link services, whose URL-shortening abilities are available via, yes, a keyboard shortcut. Tweetie is also quite adept at drilling through reply chains, viewing user profiles, and searching Twitter. Clicking through reply chains will display a breadcrumb trail at the top of the window so you can easily trace your way back, and you can click through to other users and replies until you're blue in the face. Clicking users' icon displays a page with their latest posts, mentions, favorite tweets, and their profile and follower stats.
