It annoys me that when I click off the Twitterrific window, it doesn’t auto-hide. There doesn’t seem to be a setting to make this happen.
Luckily, you can fix this with a quick edit to the MainMenu.nib file.
(This requires you have InterfaceBuilder, and therefore the developer tools installed.)
View the contents of the Twitterrific.app package, and navigate to the Resources/English.lproj directory, and open up MainMenu.nib. Find the Tweet Window, and change it’s properties to “Hide on Deactivate”.
Save the nib, and restart Twitterrific. Bingo, clicking off the window auto-hides.
You’re not talking about the iPhone version, are you? I’m using Twitterific on my MBP and the window hides nicely. You may have to set it to do so in your Preferences > Window panel. Set the “Display Notification Window” to “as normal window”. I’m pretty sure that’s how I did it.

Mine doesn’t hide.
I have it set to “as normal window”, but that just means it goes behind whatever application I click on next, but it’s still visible.

Ah, you mean hide in the most semi-permanent, out-of-sight-out-of-mind sort of way. I misunderstood. Yeah, mine won’t do that either. I use the hotkey option.
