The first version was 1.0, released October 19, 2008. Please be advised, I am not a Twitter.com  employee, or have any affiliation with them, other than using their free service.

What Does it Do?

  • The toolbar has quick links to common functions, and this website
  • It has a text box where you can submit Twitter updates
  • Save common commands or tweets – Just hit the enter button to save.
  • Easy, fast way to post updates without leaving your page while browsing
  • Will auto crunch long URLs
  • Is light, and easy to use – Guaranteed not to make your PC weigh one gram more. It’s also only about 10k is size.

I would also love your suggestions for future updates. I won’t claim it’s the best toolbar, but I use it, and love it. I still have a few things I would like to do to it, so there will be some more updates in the future.

Privacy

I built this for fun, like some may build a puzzle on a rainy day. I do not collect any data about the user with this toolbar. The only thing tracked is the number of times this application is downloaded per day.

EULA

I currently use this software myself. I have it running on a few of my own PC’s running Windows XP. On all of them, I use the latest versions of Firefox. I have yet to experience any negative effects that it may cause on other applications running. After saying that, I must say though, if you use it, you are doing so at your own risk.

By downloading you agree that this is free software, and that you are using it at your own risk. In no event will Best Web Image, BestWebImage.com or its suppliers be liable for any consequential, incidental, special, or indirect damages of any kind in the use of this tool bar software. Upgrades are in accordance with this EULA.

There are not many Twitter tools listed on DMOZ so I was pleasantly surprised to find my tool bar there. Thank You DMOZ editors! DMOZ Listing of Twitter Toolbar

Do you have a Mozzila Developer account? I need some reviews for the Twitter Toolbar so I can get it out of the sandbox.
