TriQQr.de - Desktop App for Twitter

Twitter's popularity has spawned a large brood of accoutrements and tools helping you to maximize your Twitter experience. Among those apps is Triqqr.

This German-made tool lets you submit your tweets directly to Twitter and read your timeline too. Triqqr updates about every two minutes so all your tweets should be pretty fresh. Of course to access it, you'll need to supply your Twitter account info. Otherwise you can click on public and check out other people's tweets and profiles. To submit to Twitter you'll find a message box in which to type your text; use the drop down menu to send your message to a friend, or select public. The window is resizable and can be dragged around your desktop for more convenience. The next version of Triqqr will have an options menu, complete friends and followers lists, and more customization options.
