Seesmic for Windows - first thoughts
via mashable.com
I'll keep it short and sweet rather than bore y'all with an in-depth review:
Pros:
- Cleaner interface than Tweetdeck
- Efficient synching with the Twitter API (doesn't max out your limited API calls)
- Great in-line "post update" text field - link shortening and photo uploading are seamless
- Search function works well
- Native Twitter list support
Cons:
- Often has issues identifying exactly what Tweet it is you are clicking on (selects the wrong one on right click sometimes - wierd!)
- No "reply to all" function
- Not able to directly select Tweet text content for copy-and-paste
- No notifications
- No "follow/unfollow user" option
All in all, I prefer it to Tweetdeck.
This application's a welcome break from the typical Tweetdeck-assault-on-the-eyes and has actually encouraged me to read more than one list of Tweets at a time.
Lack of notifications and "follow/unfollow user" functionality is a bit of a kick in the teeth for the time being, but hey, it is a very early beta build after all!
