Post Recommendations for Android Twitter apps?
So I'm gearing up for a couple of projects, and they'll have some social media aspects to them. I don't intend to start using Facebook again, but I've gotten my Twitter account going again (@Saragon42). However, the default HTC Twitter app on my Android phone is... well, it's good, but it's not amazing.

I know a lot of other Booters use Twitter and I'm curious—which apps do you use and prefer? For these projects, I'm particularly interested in apps which support multiple accounts (since I'll probably make an account specifically for that project.) I've used Seesmic before, but before I go back to that I'd really love to hear some more suggestions.

Also, while I'm looking for Android-specific apps, there's a lot of crossover, so don't be afraid to suggest an iPhone app you know about. If there's no Android version, so be it. :)

I'm fond of TweetDeck. It handles multiple accounts very well, and pretty much just works. My only reservation about it is that, on Android, it does not have a "jump to most recent" function, which means if it's been a while since you've run the app you'll have a long ways to scroll up the timeline.

I use the default app, but I'd be up for checking out something new.

The official Twitter app works for me.

And I'm actually very happy with the functionality of the default Twitter app for the HTC Sense UI... except that it has absolutely no support for multiple accounts.

Ah. Yeah, I only have one account, so I haven't had that problem.
