There are many other features to add using the Twitter API, anybody can contribute to improve the RADTweer, is Open Source.

The application is one sinble EXE file, at the first start up it 3 files will be created, those binaries files are use to cache messages and configuration, and can be read from ClientDataSet.

The application has some features, like:

• List of messages
• List of Mentions

During the last 2 weeks I have been working to create a Twitter desktop client in Delphi, this weekend I made a lot of progress.

The first release you will be able to see your recent messages, retwitter and add favorites. The application will use around 6-7MB RAM and EXE file less them 3MB.

Here a first screenshot, using the VCL components.

I expected to release the first version in 2 weeks, and yes I will provide the source code. I’m looking to host the project on SourceForge.

I need to define the name for this application, based on legal reason we can’t use the name Twitter. We can use like TwiDDer, TwiiPPer, anything like that, but again no Twitter, understandable they wanna protect the brand.

So I would like to ask for the Delphi Community “What name should we give for this application?”, please add your comments.
