What are the best Twitter Apps and Gadgets?

A discussion for everyone to chime in with their favourite Twitter app, whether it be PC, Mobile/cellphone or anything else.

To get the ball rolling I love www.TweetDeck.com , simple desktop application that allows you to handle all your Tweets, Twitter friends, private messages and replies, break them down into separate groups and the URL shortener is a god send.

So what else is great out there?

The best one I've tried for Twitter is Twitroid. It also has a cool photo Twitterpic app that can stamp the location of the picture with a Google map ref link or using the phone's GPS find other Twitdroid users around you. A truely mobile Twitter app.; ▶ Reply to This

Permalink Reply by Paul Skinner on April 22, 2009 at 3:46pm: I agree, Twhirl is nice, especially as I have 3 twitter accounts to watch. However, I also like the Facebook interface in TweetDeck, but that only allows one account at a time. Any suggestions?; ▶ Reply to This
