Enterprise Twitter: Multiple Accounts with Twhirl

I've been looking into the use of Twitter as an enterprise tool for a while now, and will be speaking on the subject at the Global Mobility Network, a round table of senior execs in London. I recently discovered the Twitter client Twhirl, which allows multiple account handling - essential if you want to set up secure Twitter accounts for business use.

It's a great client, and definitely the best I've used so far. It could be used to set up a number of secure accounts for different company channels and projects, without having to individually sign in and out of each one.

Of course, this still isn't perfect - it's outside the firewall, and you can't set up easy to administer channels, so everyone involved still has to individually follow each other - but it is a step forward.
