Posted by mypapit on 2 Oct 2008 in Internet Stuff, Open Source, Python, Ubuntu/Debian

Since I’ve been into twitter recently, I’m was looking for a twitter client that is suitable for my operating system. Thank god that search ended when I found mitter.

Among mitter features are :

• clean interface: simple and easy to use
• supports docking on systray
• nicely integrated with GNOME desktop
• has console client

Bonus for Ubuntu users : mitter is also available from GetDeb.net one-click-install portal

   Hi.
   I recomend you to use Twitux. I have not tried this one, but I can tell you that Twitux is a very good twitter client.

   I just installed Debian Lenny and needed a new twitter client. Mitter is wonderful – very clean, very basic; thanks for the heads up. [I think I went over 140 characters] :-(

   Unfortunately this app no longer works since they haven’t integrated Oauth support, so it’s effectively useless.

   Anyone looking for a Twitter client on Ubuntu, DON’T USE THIS until the Oauth issue is resolved:

   Thanks Jonathon, for the comment. Indeed twitter has changed its login scheme to oAuth thus clients based on the old authentication protocol will not work until they are fixed.
