Pino – Sexy Linux Twitter Client ☀

Pino is a sexy Twitter client for Linux.

Pino is Twitter and Identi.ca client for Linux desktop (actualy, for any OS, that has X11). It’s simple and fast. Pino is written in Vala language and compiled to the native binary code.

I am not entirely pleased with the existing Twitter client landscape, however Pino appears to be one of the best possibilities for Linux users. The application is available on just about every distribution possible and fulfills the standard Twitter client requirement – a tab for your stream, another for @replies and yet another for direct messages. Pino even supports multiple Twitter accounts as well as support for identi.ca accounts.

While Pino does not have built-in twitpic support, the capabilities offered by this lightweight client outweigh any potential drawbacks for those who truly need a dedicated Twitter client. I just played with Pino in an Ubuntu build I have running and was impressed with the simplicity. (via minimal linux)

    I use TweetTwain, a new Twitter client for Linux, get it from http://www.tweettwain.com It supports multiple accounts and there are many features specific to business users. I never thought of using Twitter for my business, but TweetTwain features are helping me a lot to get more targeted followers thus more business.
