MonkeyFly turns Twitter into dashboard-style web application

If you find Twitter’s default interface insipid, here is a simple way to make your Twitter experience similar to most Twitter web applications such as Tweetdeck, Seesmic or Hootsuite.

All you need is a modern browser that supports Greasemonkey scripts and extensions and that includes Firefox, Chrome, Opera and Safari.

The addon/script called MonkeyFly can turn Twitter into a grid like layout with user customizable multiple columns displaying multiple streams of Twitter feed. With MonkeyFly you can add columns for direct messages, Retweets, mentions, favorites, lists etc.
