Yorufukuru does what you ask as i understand. The only thing i would want from Quitter is the ability to post tweets without having to be in the main window. Nambu does that, sorta, and Yorufukuru apparently also does this in a way although i don't really know how that works. The one thing i want to see in Yorufukuru is the time stamp in readable text beside the tweets, i don't want to go places to see just the time a tweet was posted, i'm too lazy for that. /Krister
