I use TwitterFox: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/5081. This allows me to use post tweets in Firefox. Very handy.

If for some reason Firefox is acting up r what ever, I use TweetDeck, based on Adobe’s AIR Runtime.

We've been talking about a UI rehaul, but haven't solidified anything. We have no intentions of competing with the likes of TweetDeck, however. We want to keep it simple, as Sidebar gadgets should be. With that said, let us know (@flanakin and @tatertoten). If you’re interested in joining the Chirpr team, let me know.

It seems to be somewhere near the right design and functionality but it has its problems as I mention below. I'm not a fan of the idea of a sidebar gadget for twitter. The size of gadgets tends to be rather restrictive if you try to do more than one thing. The gadgets I use all do one thing and they do it well. (That's a little unix-y sounding :). @RebelSean I use Blu too but its rather buggy I've found. That may be due to problems in WPF, I don' tknow. I also dislike the lack of customizability. I often don't want the startup sound but there's no way to turn it off. Brandon,

The only reason I choose Blu over TweetDeck is because the UI is fabulous. It's built on WPF, and it has yet to fail me. However like yourself, I would love to have a sidebar gadget or even a decent desktop widget at that. As far as a sidebar gadget goes, I would like to be able to maximize it when I'm viewing my tweets. Of course be able to reply, DM, and look at hashlinks. The basics, nothing to complex but something that gives the twitter experience. Keep me updated! I personally use Blu. The only reason I choose Blu over TweetDeck is because the UI is fabulous.
