I've been using Seesmic's new web app for twitter for the last few days and I have to say I love it. I was begging for this a few months ago and this is pretty close to what I wanted. I don't plan on using anything else to access twitter (on my computer) - unless a better web app comes out. Either way - I'm not going back to a desktop app.
If you are someone who just uses twitter.com to access twitter - it's a no brainer to switch to this. For those of you that use a desktop app like Tweetdeck or Seesmic desktop - you really need to give this a try, but you will find a few things missing. The one I really want is multiple accounts. The other two that I don't need so much, but I like, are groups and facebook integration. I assume that @loic and team will figure out a way to get them in soon enough. Until then, running the page in two different browsers (when I need two accounts) will cover my bases.
Here is a good post by Louis Gray on Seesmic Web. He quotes Loic as saying, "there has needed to be some evangelizing for this new introduction to be accepted". I don't understand why this is such a hard thing for people to accept. Especially for something like Twitter where if you don't have a web connection - there is not a lot you can do anyway.
I'm always excited to uninstall another program from my computer. Personally I want all my apps in the cloud. And I don't need any syncing (except maybe with my iPhone I guess, where the AT&T pipe is still slow). Just keep it all in the cloud and give me a browser.
