Yesterday Nambu unleashed version 1.1 of their new twitter client for OSX. Here is a quick review and some screen shots.

The good:

• The new release supports a tweetdeck like multi column view which lets you see all of your twitter activity in one handy window.
• You can now create groups.
• Much faster then the 1.0 release.
• Nice click through options on the users to see their profile and their tweets.
• Much quicker then any of the AIR based applications.

Needs Improvement:

• Groups are not working in the column view. (expect this will be fixed shortly).
• Some of the services are not working right now. Friendfeed as an example.
• The gray background for the tweet list is hard on the eyes. Color needs to change.
• The profile pictures and text are a bit too big for my taste in the tweet list. Others millage might vary if you have higher resolution.
• Group functionality needs a better way to add users. Maybe drag and drop in column view?

Overall it is an excellent improvement over 1.0. You can download it here: www.nambu.com.
