Nambu, a follow(up)

Last Friday, I tried out the free Twitter app Nambu.

I can not recommend this software to anyone in its current state. Yes, they say it is beta software right up front, but there’s “beta” software and then there’s “BETA!!!*” software. This is the latter.

While diagnosing a problem on my system, I took a look through system.log on my machine. It was loaded chock-full of exceptions from Nambu.app. Also, perhaps humourously, my Twitter credentials were pasted in there, in plaintext, on every single post I made.

Why bother storing my passwords in Keychain if some douchey app is just going to paste them all over my system? Thanks for the fun-times. I may check back later.
