Twitter for Mac 2.1 Released: Updated UI, Lots of Fixes Welcome! If you’re new here, you may want to sub­scribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!

Mac­Sto­ries reviews Twit­ter for Mac 2.1: The biggest change in 2.1 is the pos­si­bil­ity to “clone” any view in a sep­a­rate window. By hit­ting the tri­an­gle icon in the bottom left or the Shift Cmd T key­board short­cut, you’ll be able to open a con­ver­sa­tion in a sep­a­rate view, or your direct mes­sages, a pro­file view, a search – any­thing can be cloned in mul­ti­ple win­dows that will sit along­side your main time­line. This allows you to have mul­ti­ple time­lines on screen at the same time, mul­ti­ple searches – I’m pretty sure Twit­ter power users who need to keep an eye on lots of things at the same time will appre­ci­ate this.

Speak­ing of updated views, Twit­ter 2.1 also gets an updated pro­file window (with new tabs on top) and a refreshed DM view fea­tur­ing the pop­u­lar “chat bub­bles” also seen on many iPhone apps. Def­i­nitely my favorite fea­ture of the new release. Also, we have a proper title­bar again.

At this point, the best Mac Twit­ter client is easily Twit­ter for Mac, the best on the iPhone is Tweet­bot, and on the iPad it’s Twitterrific.
