I absolutely love this application. It has a great interface and I find it very convenient! I love how you can quickly access tweets that @ replied you, and on your news feed, it highlights tweets that are @replied to you.

But I do agree- the connection is terrible. I feel like I can never log in anymore..wether it’s because of a Bad Gateway, Unavailable Service, or some other error… what a shame, because other than that, this is a wonderful app!

According to your guys ideas, I sent an email to the developer for features request and bugs report. I used Tony and Jonathan’s words directly. Together, we can make tweetie better, hopefully.

Best regards.

Too many Bad Gateways with links which doesn’t happen on other clients when running together. Also the window is HUGE and the app takes up far too much real estate even at minimum sizing. This app is great on iPhone but Twitterific still better for most on desktop.

A great client! With one *major* issue– does not follow the standards of Mac applications!! To be specific, the application remains dark (as how you active application appears) when in the background, instead of the the lighter background scheming. I know this is really nitpicky, but its really annoying because I keep thinking its my default application!

Also, it would be nice to get rid of the menu bar icon in favor of a badge on the dock icon a la iChat or Mail.

Very impressive debut. It handles some things differently than EventBox; so time will tell which one I prefer.

Tweetie is pretty cool. I’ve been playing with it, and the user interface is the best part.
A lot of other twitter clients offer some other features, but those don’t offer a refreshing view.

Not sure if $20 is the right amount to ask for though. At $15 for now, that’s okay, but I can’t see myself paying $20 for it…
