RE: What is @Twitter Planning? Pt. 2
#TalkNerdyToMeLover's Ponder This
About two months ago we were speculating about the future of Twitter concerning the mobile app market. Our prediction was that Twitter will join the app segment with an own app. Now take a look what Evan Williams just posted on the Twitter Blog:
We're thrilled to announce that we've entered into an agreement with Atebits (aka Loren Brichter) to acquire Tweetie, a leading iPhone Twitter client. Tweetie will be renamed Twitter for iPhone and made free (currently $2.99) in the iTunes AppStore in the coming weeks. Loren will become a key member of our mobile team that is already having huge impact with device makers and service providers around the world. Loren's work won the 2009 Apple Design Award and we will eventually launch Twitter for iPad with his help.
Good call, @Ev! I've tried many different Twitter clients and I finally also stuck to Tweetie.
Besides there's also a desktop version of Tweetie so maybe they're using that one too and we're about to get Twitter for Macs.
Oh, and Evan, if you're ever again unsure what to do next. Just ask us! TNTML is always cooperative and can hook you up with some nifty, new ideas!
