After logging in with an Administrative account the application installed correctly on the machine. After the first install any of the computer users can use the application but the first install, and subsequent updates, all require admin privileges. This is a limitation of the current version of Adobe AIR. Hopefully they will add support for allowing installations for non-admin users in the future.

I manage multiple profiles on Twitter and Facebook for my organization so I need easy access to all of them. Digsby handles this brilliantly.

Chris Wiggins and Brenda Fogg both played an integral part in the creation of this application. We communicated with them on a daily basis. The whole concept and direction of the application came from them. Due to the size and complexity of this application there are bound to be bugs. We have been working very hard this week to resolve bugs and plan to release an update (1.1.70) by the end of this week. Once we have resolved all of the items on our plate we hope to open up an area for users to report bugs. The app was launched along with a completely new website and logo for Fallon.

It seems like none of it was done inside their offices. Plus I got tons of errors when I tried downloading it yesterday.
