Desktop App: DestroyTwitter

This item was filed under [ desktop apps ]

DestroyTwitter is a desktop Twitter client that runs on Adobe Air.

Features:

  • all Twitter operations supported
  • uses Adobe Air platform and runs on Windows, Mac and Linux
  • high level of customization
  • TwitPic supported
  • ability to “freeze” feed while “away” to limit API calls

The Good:

DestroyTwitter is a great Twitter client. The UI is appealing (doesn’t look unlike TweetDeck in some ways), easy to use and offers good customization. A visit to the website shows that the application is in a constant state of improvement (Beta release 1.4.4 now), which is good. The developers are serious about the product.

The Not-so-Good:

We liked DestroyTwitter a lot. A couple of points spring to mind though for improvement: (1) there is the “manage multiple Twitter accounts” feature that would be great on all applications (but you can’t have everything, can you?) and (2) some of the commands/instructions are not obvious to the user (you have to visit the website to find out more about the commands) – it would be nice to see some more information on that from directly within the app itself. Other than that, it’s good stuff.

Tweetwave.com rates it: ★★★★
