twicli

twicli is a browser-based Twitter client.

No need for installation. All you need is a Web browser.
Automatically fetches timeline, and show with cool animation.
Use cross domain JavaScript to access Twitter directly (no server needed), so your password is sent to Twitter only.

Useful when you are in an Internet cafe, doing something else while viewing Twitter timeline.
Works on Firefox, Safari, Opera, IE8 at the moment, as well as Safari on iPhone/iPod touch
Works on IE7 too, but some parts aren't displayed properly.
