For heavy-duty Twitterers, it would be hard to give up the highly useful Twhirl, but just for fun there is now Birdy 1.0. This AIR app is a little blue bird that sits on your desktop and (literally) tweets your Twitter updates.

Is this thing gonna be like in the late 90s when we had sheep running around our desktops.
I don’t remember sheep, but I definitely remember the little Barbie-like figures that danced their way across the desktops to the music playing. Whatever happened to the little desktop people and the sheep? Will the web evolve like fashion, where everything recycles and returns in time?
lol.. I totally remember the sheep! And the dancing girl… ♪ …memories… ♪.
This little bird is cute, but silly… not sure Twhirl is the be all end all… I personally couldn’t stand it, it gave me terrible system wide audio problems that took me forever to pin down… I finally got rid of Twhirl and the speaker problems went with it. Give me my Twitter in my IM, old school.
