Being concerned by privacy issues when connecting to the internet, I know Twitter can monitor our activities if we don't logout and use some kind of firefox extension to prevent from being tracked. I would like to know if Twitter can monitor my browsing activities if I leave a Twitter client like Gwibber or Hotot open while I surf the web.

Nope. Twitter does not track anything while you are using a Twitter client. The client does not transmit any private browsing data to Twitter, it only sends and receives tweets, replies and PMs.

So it is up to the client's developper to secure privacy. Thanks! – Pascal G. May 06 '12 at 16:15
