Unless you are a Twitter and/or FriendFeed addict, this post isn’t for you.
Twitter/FriendFeed desktop client Alert Thingy
just released version 1.3 of the software.
It is now a fully functioning client for both services (reading and writing). They’ve also added an easy Flickr uploader - just drag a photo into the application and upload it to Flickr.
The thing I like most about the new version of Alert Thingy though is that you access Twitter and FriendFeed in a single window and a single interface (Twhirl, a competitor, requires two windows). That means less desktop space is used. They are also de-duping Twitter messages (since they also appear in FriendFeed), a nice touch.
