Twitter Within the Browser

Twitbin
While there’s no lack of Twitter clients out there (e.g. TweetDeck, Thwirl), something you may want to check out is TwitBin.

TwitBin is a Firefox add-on that opens a panel of the left-hand side of your browser so you can quickly send messages and see your Twitter stream. Like many Twitter applications, TwitBin is free, although it does run ads on the bottom of the page. It was developed for less than $1000 in two weeks by a consulting firm called InfiniMedia. (Note: Is it just me or are there a lot of consulting firms creating Twitter applications?)

Pros: A simple, no-frills ways to send and receive Twitter posts without leaving your browser so great for quickly getting in and out of Twitter.

Cons: Eats up some of your browser real estate, especially if you’re on a laptop; does not have a rich feature set.

    If you like using using a Firefox extension for Twitter, I'd highly recommend TwitKit. I use it for the rare times that I have to use Firefox on Windows, and I think it's a pretty awesome Twitter client.

    You can open your Twitter acc. also if you browsing using Flock(Mozilla version) by clicking on "Open People Sidebar" which already installed on top left handside toolbars.
