Twitter Client For Windows 8:

This client is really fast, responsive and got a good UI which really makes me feel comfortable with it while using an ultrabook as it never spoils the beauty of my machine. Since it is developed by the twitter itself so the UI just matches with the whole website layout and color scheme.

On the top right side you got the button to compose and write tweets. At the same time you got links to your connect tab, discovery tab and profile tab, termed as me at twitter. The whole ui is in the flow and afterall you get the latest tweets at the home timeline. You can retweet and can reply to any tweets instantly. Next thing is this that while using windows you can just switch between twitter client and any other application with quite an ease using the Alt+Tab (Switch windows shortcut) also if you take your mouse to the top left corner of the screen then also you can easily switch to the twitter client even while using the windows.

Above you can see the profile area in the twitter client where I can see followers, people I follow and my direct messages. Also I can slide the lower bar to see my recenet photos and my recent tweets. Sliding up the right side bar makes the twitter client update the tweets or mentions. Also it shows mentions and new followers in the row form in a symmetry so one may not get confused. Like if number of people followed me then I can follow them back by simply going to mentions and then clicking on the follow row and then there opens a row of persons who followed me, with a button to follow them back.
