Tweet Tray : Compose and send tweets from the system tray, thus saving yourself the trouble of having to use a browser, with this intuitive, unobtrusive application
Whether you are using the Twitter web interface or a desktop client, sending a tweet is more difficult than many would like. If you are looking for the simplest possible way to share something with your followers, this program may be exactly what you need.Tweet Tray, as the name suggests, is a Twitter application designed to be used exclusively from the system tray. It enables you to send a tweet in seconds, with no unnecessary hassle, and it is remarkably intuitive.
Tweeting from the system tray is as easy as it sounds
Once you’ve installed the application, you will be able to access it by clicking the tray icon or using the Ctrl+Shift+Alt+T hotkey. You can begin writing the message instantly, and the profile icon’s border will fill up to indicate when you’re getting close to the character limit.Of course, you can also insert a static image or GIF animation, and you can preview it in the main window before sending out the tweet. However, you can’t add a poll or location indicator when composing a message.
Highly intuitive application that also comes with a dark color theme
Tweet Tray is very unobtrusive, as you won’t even know its running until you need to tweet something. The user interface features a minimalistic design, so it isn’t likely to get in your way if you are working on something else while typing a message.For users who aren’t fans of the bright while background, an alternative theme can be selected from the application’s settings. The darker colors are easier on the eyes, and they will fit certain Windows themes better than the default skin.
Just the thing for sending quick tweets from your desktop
Tweet Tray is the perfect choice for users who want to be able to write a message to their followers without bringing up the Twitter web UI or using a desktop client. It runs quietly in the system tray and is always at hand when you need to send a tweet.
