Inappropriate?There's a long list of apps that work with the Mac at the Twitter Fan Wiki: http://twitter.pbwiki.com/Apps
I personally prefer Firefox browser extensions myself. I've tried both TwitBin and TwitterFox. They're different and I use them at different times depending on the 'mood' that I'm in. -
Inappropriate?It seems that the TwitterFox icon is red much of the time. Is this just a Twitter issue? I'm pretty satisfied otherwise but would try TwitBin or something else if it were more reliable.
I’m wondering

Inappropriate?Hi. Twitter had lowered the API rate limit a few days ago to 20 requests per user per hour due to 'over capacity' errors.
So third-party applications that pull updates, direct msgs, and @replies with each refresh (like Twitterfox) are likely to hit the hourly API limit quickly, since that counts as three separate requests.
Twitbin might work better for you while the API rate limit is this low, since it only pulls one of the three (whichever the user specifies) each time it refreshes. -
