Since we're pimping our stuff... :) Quitter is a quiet little Twitter client for Windows that provides filtering. - You can filter specific hashtags - You can filter specific users (doesn't block - just hides their tweets in Quitter) - You can filter specific words
Conversely, you can also choose to -highlight- any tweet based on hashtag, user, or word content as well. Quitter is and will always be free. http://www.GetQuitter.com On Aug 10, 10:19 am, "Michael Paladino" <paladinomich...@gmail.com> wrote: > You can always recommend your friends use the "Filter this column" feature > of TweetDeck.
