Well...it works, but without much flair. Tweets are displayed in a tiny font that is hard to read. Sending tweets is a mysterious affair, with no submit button and no apparent way to shorten urls.

I can't imagine why anybody would use this app instead of the web client. It is less attractive and offers no extra features.

The search for a decent client continues.

Version 2.1.2; Snow Leopard 10.6.1.

Selecting Preferences from the Syrinx menu does nothing -- thus I have no way of increasing font size, which defaults to tiny. Also the icon becomes invisible once new messages arrive -- all you see is the message badge.

About the only positive thing I can say it that this program works under Snow Leopard -- something that can't be said about Nambu.
