“In my post �6 microblogging client for
Linux� I�ve received a
comment about the software: Turpial. Turpial is a client for
Twitter and Identi.ca (only after the 1.4.X release) based on
PyGTK, I�ve tested on my ubuntu 11.04 the
version available in the development PPA for Ubuntu and so
I�ve made the tests on Twitter and
Identi.ca.

“What I�ve liked of this program from the
start it�s his simplicity, integration with
the notification area (tested on XFCE) and the acoustic tweets when
a new message arrive (but i suspect that in the long run
I�d silence that), but now some details.”
