New paint for the free Twitter and Identi.ca client Hotot
Filed under: News;No Comments
Somehow I am not satisfied with any Twitter / Identi.ca client. Gwibber I like the integration into the system fairly well, but is incredibly slow. TweetDeck for Chrome as a browser app is an alternative, but the Chrome app can not handle Identi.ca. Pino and how they could have called me all never really convincing, because as for me the simultaneous viewing of multiple timelines is essential.Still remains quite slim Twitter and Identi.ca Hotot enabled client, who's just had a new look and new functions granted.Display
Hotot is a Twitter client that can also deal with Identi.ca. Unfortunately he can not use both services at the same time, when the application starts you have to choose between Twitter and Identi.ca. The program is open source and has been implemented with Phyton, WebKit and JavaScript. So, it is not only an installable version of the program, but also a WebApp for Chrome, which is identical to the “normal” version is.
Which version is tried by her so much care. Who Chrome / Chromium uses a browser open anyway and has, or who even Chrome portable on a USB flash drive uses for the WebApp is perhaps the most skillful method. Who Hotot prefer to “properly” install, which can draw on the example of the PPA Hotot team, which is supplied daily with current builds of the program.
$ Sudo apt-add-repository ppa: hotot team$ Sudo apt-get update & & sudo apt-get install hotot
Otherwise I would not say much, who has worked with schonmal Gwibber, TweetDeck and Co., who will get along well with Hotot. In recent weeks, the view of each column has been revised. Generel Hotot appears completely in a lighter tone as well as each column is now displayed in its own color. In addition, all icons are moved to the top of the screen.
Virtually
Is that it automatically expands the view when the window is wide draws. However, the timelines are still not fully configurable. I personally appreciate the e.g. much in Gwibber, because this results in certain hashtags or keywords separately can keep an eye on.
Good solution is to write tweets and posting pictures on Twitpic.com and Co. You can upload images directly from Hotot out and let the special link in the tweet. In addition, images or videos can be displayed directly in the stream when installing Twitterers links to media in a tweet. It's also nice that the API supports Hotot bitly and you can see so its history of short links.
Twitterholics with sensory overload is perhaps the firewall interesting content. She tweets about her can be certain keywords from your timeline to filter out. So if you friend has that tweet permanently justin bieber on #, that you do not yet want to completely throw out the timeline, then you can put these days on the blacklist and then relax and enjoy a beaver-free Twitter.
