Introducing TweetieSpy…
Beautifully simple. Smart. Hip. Free!
TweetieSpy is a must-have application for the serious Twitter user. It sits quietly in your tray and pops new Twitter messages in near real-time.
TweetieSpy is beautiful in design, not only for what it does do, but for what it doesn’t do. It is small & streamlined, super-easy to use, and stays out of your way entirely until it alerts you to an incoming Tweet.
Receive Twitter messages without interrupting your work. Whether you’re in a meeting, typing a paper, or browsing the web, TweetieSpy keeps you in touch. That’s smart. If there happens to be a link in that message, just click on the message and TweetieSpy will take you there.
Perhaps the best part is that it is free. Well, I do drink a lot of iced tea and sure wouldn’t turn down a glass if you bought one for me. It keeps me fueled and cranking out more great software.
Features:
- Small memory footprint
- Easy interface
- Small tray icon takes up virtually no space
- Doesn’t interrupt your work, even when a message comes in
- @me mode only shows you the Tweets that are directed specifically at you

Twave has now taken the lead.
Twaiter is in 2nd place.
I like Tw@
Twayter is now #1

Twave & Twaiter are usernames already taken on Twitter (don’t want to repeat the Tway incident).
Twayter is like your own personal Waiter for Twitter for your tray. Twhistle, Twansmitter, and Tweleport are self-explanatory. Comments?
