I'll follow Quy's lead. I have been providing social media training / support to companies for the last year, earlier this year I identified a number of services/features that desktop clients should have, and have today successfully used my client, developed in C++ with QTwitlib, to read from and post to Twitter. After some further development, the client will be released (Windows only till someone provides me Mac & Linux machines) as open-source. I've been following the discussion here for a couple of weeks, it has helped me understand the API better. Cheers all, Nigel.
