Glad to know I'm not alone. Tweetie2 crashed while I was trying to post a tweet. Now, every time I open the app, it posts that tweet before doing anything.

It's highly embarrassing and unfortunately the bug makes Tweetie2 unusable. I've deleted and reinstalled the app, to no avail.

I do hope this bug can be fixed asap. There are many other bugs, as highlighted elsewhere in GS, but this is a show-stopper that means I simply cannot use the app.

We're not ruling it out, but it's not in our plans right now I'm afraid. Mac hardware is generally less varied; we can usually rely on an iSight camera and so on. A Windows version would need to be substantially more flexible and would therefore take substantially more testing, time and money. If there's sufficient demand at a later date we may look into it.

Thanks for the info Rui. We'll have a chat with our developers and pass this on. It may well be we need to come back to you and get hold of the log; they'll be in your Application Support folder. Will let you know.

Sorry for the problems, and we hope to get this all fixed as soon as possible.

Seriously? I'm a big fan of Get Satisfaction and don't mean to cause offence, but I'm amazed you feel we need research to disprove such an obviously wrong practice.

Users should never give a web app password to another web app. It's that simple. The banking industry, which knows a great deal more about user security than the web industry, follows exactly this practice. They implore users never to reveal their PIN to anyone, and refuse to cover losses caused by ignoring this advice.

The ideal solution is to continue to pressure Twitter to support OAuth, but this really needs the help of third parties rejecting the unpleasantness of the password anti-pattern. It'd be great if Get Satisfaction could be part of this movement.
