Hi Amie,
I don't know about Qube but Qwitter never seems to be bothered by adds at
all. From time to time you do get the odd spammer but that's the only main
negative I've observed.

Will either Quitter or Qube help with ad-blocking though, come to think of
it?
I don't want to avoid going to the site as on-site activity is of interest
to me while I get underway, at least. I'm happy to navigate the site and
have to use it for work, so really must use it fully. I just wish I could
get the ads out of the way, to speed things up and remove the risk of
accidentally following promoted tweets.
I'm a fool about these kind of web tools, so maybe I'm asking the wrong
question, am I?
Thanks again.
A

I believe that they are no longer developing it but I think you can still
download it and use it. I'm certainly still using it happily.

Someone told me Quitter is now defunct; is it still on the go then?
Thanks for the tip.

Amie,
Qwitter is also pretty good (see http://qwitter-client.net/download.php).
Basically it sits in memory and allows you to avoid having to go to the
Twitter website every time you want to check your tweets or to send a new
one.

The best thing is to use The Qube.

Hi list
I'm just starting out using Twitter, and finding it laborious but just about
doable.
Wondering, though, what's the best thing, using JAWS 10, as an ad-blocker
that works well withTwitter,specifically?
All help gratefully received.
Thanks.
Amie
