    Cool, but I'm fine with the official Twitter for Mac.

    That looks almost like the official Twitter for Mac actually (the UI).

    The official one has to be the worst app available. It doesn't have picture uploading to Twitter's site, has no read later support, doesn't let you save drafts, has no inline images, hasn't been updated in over a year, and is overall way behind the web version in every possible way. I'd rather use the buggy Osfoora for Mac just to have the extra functionality and features.

    Of course the UI looks like the Twitter app because that's the same way the iOS app works. I'm very excited for Tweetbot to release because the developers actually care about their users and release updates whenever new hardware requires it or there's a bug. They're fast, unlike Twitter.

    True, out of those things I'd like to see picture uploading for sure, I was wondering where the button was first time I used it. :p

    And drafts would be useful, but other than that I don't have any complaints really. I normally use the website as well, the Mac app's usually not my first option, but it's okay. It's free so yeah.

    I kind of want to start using their website since it receives updates before anything else, so I might add it to Fluid or something.

    >beautiful Tweetbot interface

    I don't see how people see Tweetbot as beautiful, it looks like some child whacked a gradient down, threw some noise on it and put some glyphs over the top of that. It looks god awful.
