twitter apps
Twitter is just everywhere and has already made a lots of people addicts or so called Tweetaholics but I for example hate if someone twitters all the day (that’s why I’ve unfollowed poor chris (sry!))
there are two excitingly good apps for the iphone to manage your twitter accounts and I’ve tried them both out.
A very popular tweet app is tweetie for only 3$. But I have to say that I’ve found the UI really poor for that price. I think there is only one thing I would prefer it over twitterific is that it can handle images in an awesome way, when in a tweet it recognizes an uploaded image to yfrog or twitpic it shows a little icon next to the tweet and when loading it, it only shows the image and not the website.
with tweetie you can upload images directly to yfrog or short urls.
The first Tweeter app I used was the free version of twitterrific but now I’ve tried out the premium version for 4$. This might be the most expensive tweeter app but it is absolutely worth it if tweeter plays a central role in your life, its design is absolutely beautiful, but for me as a casual tweeter user it was not always clear what the meaning of some of the icons really is.
A really good idea from the creators was to show also private massages on the first loaded page just in an other colored box
in functions twitterrific has everything you just want to have!
only problem was that it sometimes froze when I asked to tweet my location.
for shorting urls it used bit.ly and for uploading images yfrog.com like tweetie.
But this app also can short the hole text if it is more than 140 characters but with more or less success
This app is great I only missed the image viewing feature from tweetie.
with both apps can handle more than one twitter account and with both you can brows other peoples profiles, follow or unfollow them
