Re: [twitter-dev] Last Login and Application
the short answer is no. logged in is a hard thing -- you can tell the last time a user tweeted by looking at the time stamp of the status update, however, as people can consume tweets on a variety of places (the web, API clients, third parties, etc.), its hard to define logged in. as for what application was used last, i would look at what is the source field of the last tweet the user sent.
