The one and only short coming of Weet is that it can only run on a Mac OS X platform. It is yet to be enhanced for other platforms; however it is extremely good-looking and convenient to use. It supports multiple accounts and ReadItLater and Instapaper integration. It uses user-names and keywords for generating filters. Unfortunately, Weet was never upgraded since its last version 1.0, which was released on February, 2011.

Socialite

It integrates Google Reader, other RSS feeds and also photos from Flickr. Through Socialite you can also connect with your Facebook and Twitter accounts. Its exceptional interface makes us feel that some obedient email client has come to our service.

Twhirl

It had to face many debates, since its inception, but now it is a significant fact that Metro Twitter has the best looking interface among all other Twitter clients. It is absolutely built to run on Windows platform. Metro Twitter has been implanted with very powerful filters that not only filters Users and keywords, but also percolates various applications.

TweetDeck is all you need. It can hold multiple accounts, send tweets in real-time, and notify interactions. TRIVIA: Versions ago, TweetDeck was supporting three platforms: Twitter, Facebook and MySpace. It ditched MySpace and focused on Twitter so that it is the core of their service. Hence, the tweeting prowess of TweetDeck. Nice roundup anyhow.

Hi Debarshi

I use Tweetdeck a lot but as I don’t have a Mac I couldn’t take advantage of many of the other apps.

I like the look of Socialite, shame there isn’t a Windows version. I think I will search for something like that!

Thank you for sharing these apps.

I use TweetBot on my iPhone. It is coming to Mac here pretty soon. The Beta is actually out right now. IMO, it blows most of those out of the water.

Although, I do not use Twitter much but as a part of my social media strategies, I need to use it to market out my products and promote my websites. To be frank, I use only TweetDeck among this list of Twitter tools, the others are new to me.

Hi Debarshi
Thanks for the list. I have been using TweetDeck for a long time and I really love the way it works. I have also tried HootSuite, but I did not like it for some reason.
To be honest TweetDeck is the only application on the list that I have tried, maybe it is time to check out some of the other.
