Love Alert Thngy even more now. Just have to get AIR alpha to work on my Linux system now :-(. Getting spoiled by this Mac. ...via AlertThingy - Tony

Blogit is the new AlertThingy. ...via AlertThingy - Dan

I am just testing it since today but I am liking it. However, I think it could use some filters (per source, with comments, etc.) ...via AlertThingy - Andrés David Aparicio

alertthingy is not as polished as twhirl yet, but it's getting there. And yes, they could definitely merge, I wouldn't mind. ...via AlertThingy - Stan Schroeder

Still buggy, but has great potential. I also love the regular daily updates. ...via AlertThingy - Joshua Kerr

Social Thing has nice FB integration. Would love that via FriendFeed and Alert Thingy. ...via AlertThingy - David Smith

I like Alert Thingy better than Twhirl for what it is worth. ...via AlertThingy - David Evans

I'm loving AlertThingy. The Twitter thing is great! Just wish they'd get rid of the "via AlertThingy" signature at the end. I'd even pay for a premium version. ...via AlertThingy - Brandon Titus

Totally in love with Alert Thingy! ...via AlertThingy - Daniel Spradau

Twirls fights back! - Daniel Spradau

Twhirl has upped the ante this morning with 0.7.9 though! ...via twhirl - Tris Hussey

I am confused... ...via AlertThingy - David Kaspar

Yeah I noticed that Twhirl added FriendFeed support to stay in the game. I tried it but like AlertThingy better. Neither are as good as they can be but AlertThingy has the better implementation in my opinion. ...via AlertThingy - Rolf Schewe

So far I think Twhirl is doing it better. Integrating the windows will be almost the final step. After that, filter the FF tweets so I dont see dupes. ...via twhirl - Soulhuntre

I just downloaded the new Twhril with FriendFeed support ...via twhirl - Mike Wills

To me the lack of integration is the problem. Neither are as good a twitter client (for just twitter) as Google Talk. The real-time updates squashes any features these other cleints have. I use Google Talk as my main twitter interface with AlertThingy on the side to track my and other people's social content. At this point the layout of AlertThingy is a little nicer. ...via AlertThingy - Rolf Schewe

Air on LInux: http://labs.adobe.com/downloa... - Arnaud Fischer

Seems to me AlertThingy is in the lead, and Twhirl is trying to keep up. I like Twirls Twitter features and AlertThingy's friendfeed features, ummm.... ...via AlertThingy - Ashley Williams

still prefer twhirl. As soon as they can integrate into one window I'm removing AT ...via twhirl - Ryan

They are both lacking. Until I can either integrate all my follows into FF or filter my Tweeple from FF neither will be perfect. I think that the twhirl team will get there faster as Loic has more resouces. Who knows maybe @snookca will intgrate FF with snitter? ...via twhirl - Jay Gilmore

Twirl still has my vote - Charlie Anzman

Just bvecause you can tweet doen't mean you can read your tweets. this is a non-event. ...via AlertThingy - Matthew

Twhirl is still better i think. ...via twhirl - Tina K.J

Why can't we get rid of these via "...." messages. That's the killer for me. I don't care what client someone is using and it's just a distraction. Really not much advertising benefit either. - Brandon Titus

I agree. I still need to have Twirl for Twitter to be useful at all. ...via AlertThingy - Ainsworth Boyle

I don't know: I'm liking the possibilities of AThingy; less resource-intense than Twirl. ...via AlertThingy - Chris Judson

Brandon, the "via .." thing has been fixed. The clients need to update to use it. Check out a preview of how it's going to work here: http://friendfeed.com/e... - Bwana ☠

Still needs better grouping like the website - Ryan

Woot! ...via AlertThingy - Tyler (Chacha)
