    Nice but I prefer other clients that do similar things.

    Very Cool, but useful ? I don't think so - in my case.

    Excellent little alert/notification utility for social network sites. I've started to post on twitter far more than usual!

    New version is getting closer, but the lack of window and column adjustment make this still a pale shade of tweetdeck.

    Have tried a few twitter tools to keep up to date, and finally found one that works. I also use the feature of getting Facebook statuses, too. Runs nicely in the back ground, and does a balloon pop up when someone updates.

    A piece of crap! using over 100 MB of RAM and freezing every 5 minutes. DO NOT bother yourself to install or use it at all!

    Great program, but locks up occasionally. Overall a very useful tool for integrating all your online services.

    it is copy of http://wakoopa.com/software/alert-thingy but this name (AlertThingy) is correct

    I like it myself. I use it more for FriendFeed than Twitter but the one thing I dislike is that when there's alot of text or a wide image, the resize handle is not there.

  • borgse fanatic

    I thought tweetdeck was the best before I met alert-thingy. Now, I like it more than deck!

  • Whitey fanatic

    Useful app.

    Overall:

    It's a nice AIR application, although why I can't view my friends Twitter's if they don't have a FriendFeed account is perplexing!
