Tweetie for Mac is Now Available

The big bird is finally out of its cage.

One thing I like most about Tweetie is the ability to drill down into conversations and user’s tweets. The feature is much like that on the iPhone version of Tweetie but with an implementation that is much more desktop-y.

Tweetie also lets you choose your own URL shortening service, and will take long links and convert them to short ones from within the New Post Box. And if you tweet links often, Loren has created a bookmarklet which will take the current Web page you’re on and start a new tweet post with that URL in it (much like the bookmarklet that works with MarsEdit). Info on the Tweetie bookmarklet can be found here.

Also, Tweetie is powered by Fusion Ads. Not only does the free version display in-line ads from Fusion, but even the for-pay version gives you the option to enable the ads.
