Twitter @ Desktop

If you've ever been in the position where you just can't open your internet browser because you're either too busy or it will distract you too much, then perhaps you should download the Twitter at Desktop app. What's the key advantage of this? You can save yourself from getting distracted by the millions of updates and raise your productivity levels as a result. Desktop Twitter promises to keep you updated on the most pertinent tweets to you, but you can follow along without having to go online and get further distracted.

Authorized Access

After you have installed this program, you will have to authorize the access to your Twitter account because otherwise, you won't be able to receive the updates. Outside that, you don't need to do much else. Desktop Twitter simply sits on your systems tray, and once it activates, the tweets come into your timeline.

The Interface of Desktop Twitter

In terms of interface, we see a fantastically designed program that doesn't overwhelm you. The interface looks compact, but it remains easy to understand even still. You even have the blue color scheme that sticks with you. At the same time, the software makes use out of the same terminology as what you might find on the social networking site. Through this version of Twitter, you will access to some of the easy-to-use extras, and you can follow or unfollow someone just as easily. If the need arises, you can copy tweets to the clipboard and post them. It works just like regular Twitter.

Want to Switch Twitter Accounts?

Looking to switch over to another Twitter account? We found how we liked how Desktop Twitter did a great job of switching the accounts smoothly. The feature lets you transition between multiple accounts with ease so that you can fully appreciate what this software has to offer. Like it promises, the tweets get delivered straight to your account as soon as they get set to the account.

Handy App That's Easy to Use

You can make easy use out of this software from the desktop. It works just like how it might on the social media site, but it does have a few differences. Nevertheless, the key concepts of Twitter remain fully in-tact with the release of this app.

One thing that we didn't like about this app was how we found that it didn't uninstall cleanly. In fact, it left behind Start Menu icons that you will have to clean up yourself. However, if you look past that, this software doesn't cost you a dime, and it works just like promised. All in all, you have an excellent choice in software.
