Yesterday, when I wrote that Tweetie was the best iPhone Twitter client not everyone agreed. Fair enough, there are a few other really great ones including Birdfeed (which we've covered here ) and Echofon (the app formerly known as TwitterFon ). And the team behind Echofon has today rolled something that puts it ahead of Tweetie in at least one regard: A native Mac client that syncs with the iPhone client. While Tweetie does have a ( very nice ) Mac client, there is no syncing between it and the iPhone version just yet. It is coming, but Echofon has beaten them to the bunch. This puts in in the league with TweetDeck, which also has a desktop and iPhone client that sync , but Echofon is nicer because it's a native Mac app rather than running on Adobe Air. (Seesmic also has an iPhone app in the works that will sync with its desktop client, though that is again, Air-based.) TechCrunch50 Conference 2009 : September 14-15, 2009, San Francisco
