Mah Tweets: Now available and on Codeplex
What is Mah Tweets? According to the description (that Will wrote, I corrected),
"Mah Tweets is a Twitter client with a difference.
In addition to using the regular Twitter API, it uses the Jabber protocol to get instant notifications from Twitter. This also means it's capable of using Twitter's Keyword Tracking notification services. "
To sum that up, Mah Tweets gives you your twitter feed in real time (for people you have on device/im notifications), rather than what the usual Twitter client does, which is scrape the API feed every minute or so. Mah Tweets does that too, so those you don't have on notification will still be seen!
Requirements
- Microsoft .NET Framework 3.0
- Twitter Account
- Jabber/XMPP-compliant IM Account (such as Gmail / Gtalk)

PLEASE NOTE THIS IS AN ALPHA RELEASE.
Mah Tweets Alpha v2.1
Thanks to the help of Will, MahTweets is now also available on Codeplex…that means source code and all!
Codeplex for those who don't know, is sort of like Microsoft's answer to SourceForge. Through TeamExplorer 2005/2008, it allows you to manage it all through Visual Studio, instead of using a standalone tool (which for me, I'd always forget. My tests of CVS/SVN have failed because of that)
