Mrinal convinced Vineet and I to become Twitter-ers at the recent Barcamp we'd attended.

Mrinal also told me that twhirl was the best Twitter client around.  I did try using Witty and it seems to be a little buggy at the moment.  I have since decided that the world needs a better WPF Twitter client and intend to write one when I find time.  In the meanwhile, it is actually quite painful to use twitter.com itself to keep track of all the people I am trying to follow on Twitter.

So I gave in and decided to also give twhirl a try (and in the process also see what things a twitter client should have). Now, twhirl needs Adobe AIR runtime to be installed and the integrated installer started off from the twhirl homepage.

It downloads it and then gives me an error that says:

I know Adobe AIR isn't very good with external devices, but then I do have a hard disk available! :)  Time to go the manual install route I guess.

Sudha Hariharan, a Flex Enthusiast I met at the Adobe Flex UG, had an interesting email conversation with me on Silverlight.  She has posted the same on her blog and you can check it out here.

Thanks Sudha - it was fun answering those questions!

If you are a Silverlight enthusiast and found a ton of features you wanted in Silverlight 2, here's your chance to say what you'd like to see in Silverlight 3. 

Head over to Scott Barnes' MS Mossy Blog and type away your list!

Happy wishing!
