Getting Geeky With Twitterrific and AppleScript
I am most definitely a devotee of the social-networking message service Twitter. (Explaining Twitter's appeal is the topic of another story, one I haven't written yet.) But if you use Twitter, and especially if you use The Iconfactory's Twitterrific for Mac (free with ads, US$15 without) you might be interested in discovering some of the program's hidden features.
Before I begin, an aside: There are a lot of Twitter apps for the Mac. I've tried most of them, but I keep coming back to Twitterrific. Its simple interface does what I want, when I want. Some of the competitors offer interesting features, but none of them work well enough to tear me away from Twitterrific. I do have a wish-list for Twitterrific that's about a mile long--but again, that's another story. Despite my recognition of its flaws, Twitterrific's the Twitter app that works the best for me.
