I would love! personally to see Blindtweets, It sound really really sweet! Let us know once it's available. I assume it'll be Lion ready, obviously.

Hi,
Look, i don't want to diss your product, Jonathan but i must ask the list this: Do we really need a blind specific Twitter client? Wasn't it so that we chose the Mac platform to get away from blind specific solutions and be more standard, thus being able to more easily communicate with sighted people on equal terms? I can understand the need for one or more blind specific solutions in the PC world, but here? Am i naive, stupid, living on another planet?

Hello,

there are some problems to develop a ported version of Qwitter:

* keystroke management is very different in OSX than Windows... We have to rewrite all modules about keyboard
* window dialog management is very different in OSX.
* there are few diferences in IO file system for OSX and Windows


well, I have a good news... I'm developing Blindtweet for OSX. It is a twitter client for OSX managed using keystrokes and it uses speech capabilityes to show the twiter information.
I hope finish it for september and it will be in the Mac app store
