Thwirl now lets you post to Twitter, Jaiku, and Pownce simultaneously

Twhirl 0.7.1Twhirl 0.7.1 was released this week and the desktop Twitter client has some major new features.

Twhirl 0.7.1 also includes additional color schemes, the ability to choose your URL shortening service (either Snurl or is.gd) and the ability to mark messages as read.
