I’ve been looking for a second desktop Twitter client for OS X. Twitterrific is fine, but I use it for my personal account and I want to monitor our company Twitter account as well. First I tried cloning Twitterrific and running it twice, but I found that too confusing since the windows were nearly identical. Then I tried and loathed various AIR apps. Finally, I’ve settled on NatsuLion. Out of the box, the colours are a bit ugly, but a few tweaks and it’s liveable. (Try the dark palette with little or no transparency.) Also, it doesn’t hog a ton of RAM or CPU (yes, AIR, I’m talking to you) and the icon is super cute. Grrrowl!
Update, 13 January 2009: One terrible omission is that NatsuLion doesn’t warn you when the tweet you’re writing is too long and so you end up with a truncated tweet. Bad news.
