    Thanks to Michael Arrington! I feel I have chosen the right way with my desktop application.
    As for fixing, I still think Twitter needs some tuning. A good interface depends on a good backend. Twitter's backend is pretty good, apart from the recent security issues that we all know. So I guess that'd be the next step.

    Definitely Twitter can be improved, just like every other web product! ;-)

    But that's not to say that Twitter doesn't "work" without add-on services. I mostly use Twitter through the straight-up web interface alone, and have noted that people like Robert Scoble does the same. That's not to say that the universe of add-ons and the innovation coming out of that sphere aren't rad, as they certainly are!

    Quick addition: I neglected to note that Twitblogs does have Twitter search functionality embedded within its profile experience. So Twitblogs and TwitWall probably have roughly the same number of features, but TwitWall is a little bit further along in refining look/feel. Looking forward to how this space (sub-Twitter space?) plays out.

    Also we offer the ability to Tweet from within Twitblogs which essentially means you don't have to go back to Twitter once logged into Twitblogs. In fact its probably safe to say Twitblogs's AJAX interface makes Tweeting easier than Tweeting from Twitter.

    Thanks for the mention Eric.

    Cheers
