If Twitterific isnt your favorite, then Twitterpod will really impress you. This is a stand along application which uses Core Data to store your tweets, making them available for searching etc. Other features includes a Smart Drawer ( a kind of mini web-browser), quick reply, Growl support, and more. What makes this application different from all the other applications you know, is its ability to archive all tweets that you have recieved.
Drilldown:

- QuartzComposer views

- Quick posting with a tiny window
Growl lets Mac OS X applications unintrusively tell you when things happen.
What is Sparkle?
Sparkle is an easy-to-use software update framework for Mac.
What is Smart Drawer?
Smart Drawer is a feature which is really great because when you browse over any tweet that comes with a hyperlink you need not go from one application to another in order to view the hyperlinks. The drawer gives you a snapshot of the link page. If you find the page, worth visiting on the first glance, view it in the browser else just trash it. Isnt it interesting?
Keyboard shortcuts are also available. Apple 2 sends an @ message and Apple 3 opens the particular person's profile in the browser.
The another feature is that a visualization tool allows you to have Twitter running as a screensaver. This nice little feature helps you to keep track of whats happening in Twitter.
A really nice Desktop Application. I give it a high five!
