Tweetie 2 for iPhone

October 12, 2009

It’s out!

I’m floored by the response - thanks to everyone who picked up a copy.  As much as I’d like to curl up and sleep for a few weeks, there is much still to do!

First, despite the fact that it says 2.0 on the box, Tweetie 2 is a 1.0 at heart (it really is a complete rewrite).  From what I’ve gathered it seems to be mostly solid, but like any 1.0 app there are always those  niggles that crop up at the last minute and make you want to kick yourself.  They’ll be fixed soon.

Second, there are a ton of cool new features getting turned on soon on Twitter’s end.  I built Tweetie 2 to take advantage of them, so I’m hoping to “flip the switch” for the next update.  New style Retweets, per-tweet geotagging, and of course, Lists.

Finally, once things settle down a bit I’d like to share some of the stuff I wrote that helped get Tweetie 2 off the ground.  Code, ideas, and a few new projects.

Oh, and I haven’t been all Tweetie all the time, there is this other thing… stay tuned.
