Hi,
There’s an alpha version of Adobe AIR available for Linux, so I’ve been using twhirl on Linux
There are a couple of notable twitter clients based on AIR too, like Spaz..
Just thought it’s nice to know =)
Thanks for the update Andy. I have not tried AIR, guess it’s time now.
I use TweetTwain, a new Twitter client for Linux, get it from http://www.tweettwain.com It supports multiple accounts and there are many features specific to business users. I never thought of using Twitter for my business, but TweetTwain features are helping me a lot to get more targeted followers thus more business.
