Twitter is a well known micro-blogging service and I was using it very rarely, however recently I found that this service is quite addictive and useful too. I was using the IM facility of Twitter and I used to get bugged quite frequently because of various twitter updates from my friends (because, it used to open up a chat window every now and then).
I was looking for some desktop client, however I found that I didn’t use the service too much because I was too lazy to bring that application up on the screen and then make a quick tweet.
