Hi Dean,

Very cool to see you building something for the iPhone and using Twitter for the api. Very cool and congrats on getting onto the Digg homepage! Woot. Can you please drop me a quick email, I made Tweetr the desktop twitter client and thinks it would be a good idea if we said hi.
Cheers, John.

Just wanted to let you know your app iTweetr has been added to modmyiphone.com/apps, the definitive iPhone apps directory. Great work, thanks for your coding. ;)

This is a perfect example of an application that is great for the iPhone. Good job.

Dean,

Dude, I love the idea, the screenshot looks amazing but do not call it iTweetr. The “i” is so fucking over used in product naming today and it’ll make your program seem like another fish in the water. Love the idea, change the name.

Great work Dean! How about developing the app for the Nokia N800? It’s no iPhone (nor a phone for that matter) but it’s totally open and very hackable. Let me know Your thoughts on this one…

I’m guessing it would only be a matter of making sure it (or a version of it) works with the Opera browser that come on the N800. So yes, in theory, its entirely possible.

You have no idea how awesome I think that is, Dean.

Congratulations on the digg, and good job on it :)

Scrolling should work normally, if it’s an AJAX based web app. So why would it be any different? And even if it was… chances are Apple already thought of that, and they’ve implemented some auto conversion thing to adapt “normal” scrolling to whatever you seem to think they will be doing.

That being said… that’s sweet!

Yeah I tried to add “drag scrolling” but figured there wasn’t much sense in spending heaps of time on it just yet, mainly because I don’t know exactly how the scrolling will work with the iPhone. I’m going to try and track down some more details from WWDC and go from there.
