To the Twhirl Development Team:

First & foremost, good work. This is a great Twitter client with serious potential.

Secondly, I know you've probably heard some of these before, but--in my humble view of course--for Twhirl to become a killer Twitter client, it needs to behave a bit more like other great persistent Mac apps that many of us are fond of (Skitch, Adium, & QuickSilver comes to mind). I'll cut to the chase:

1) Docklessness - Since, in theory, this app is running all the time and in the background, it's active-state icon shouldn't be in the dock. Perhaps make it an option? (also, I just realized Adium doesn't do this unfortunately).
2) A Menu Home - Need to be able to minimize Twhirl to the menu.
3) Global Shortcut - I love being able to pull up any of my persistent apps with a shortcut... Adium responds to Opt+A... QuickSilver perks up on Cmd+Space. I'd love to be able to pull up Twhirl the same way.
4) Growl - Not sure if Adobe Air can do Growl notifications, but if it can, this would great go towards Twhirl notifications playing nicely with all the tons of other notifications many have coming at us.

Anyway, like I said, I'm sure you guys have heard a lot of this before. Unfortunately, I couldn't find those threads so I thought I'd consolidate the sentiment here.

I look forward to hearing your thoughts on the matter.

Regards,
