I know it’s a common sentiment, but Google’s multiple account handling is unbelievably bad. So frustrating.

International data rates are a monstrous scam. Wow.

via Twitterrific for Mac

@Seanfunk @JimmySlims Yeah, I saw that one a while back - very cool.

via Twitterrific for Mac in reply to Seanfunk

@JimmySlims LOL - it’s a date! Oh, wait… Gotta work. Bummer.

via Twitterrific in reply to JimmySlims

@danfrakes @chartier Bah - of course. Sorry. For that I’m still stuck on TextMate because of @ttscoff.

via Twitterrific for Mac in reply to danfrakes

@danfrakes @chartier Have you considered Writing Kit? Tons of useful functionality for writing on an iPad, though no MD syntax highlight.

@geoffgauthier It’s a gateway drug, just you wait. Soon you’ll need to have a Macbook of some kind, and an iPad, and an iMac…

@AllanEdwin LOL - this chart almost certainly does not apply to marital arguments. Even referencing it would immediately lose the argument!

Steve Jobs’ 2005 Stanford Commencement Address: http://t.co/Iw40GFc

via Twitterrific for Mac

Second bad sign re: Jobs’ health this week; first was news that his biography’s release date has been moved forward.

via Twitterrific for Mac

I’m bummed about Steve Jobs stepping down, only because it doesn’t bode well for his health, and that’s a bummer no matter who it is.

via Twitterrific for Mac

@geoffgauthier Nahh, but it doesn’t bode well for Jobs’ health, and that’s a bummer no matter who it is.

@GlenTrainor I have a Chrome extension called Extended Share installed, but rarely use it: http://t.co/Cg1q0Wz

@GlenTrainor As far as I know there aren’t any options for importing posts into G+, but lots if you want to post there and export to T & FB.

@jonseff One look at my console after reading that helped me decide to ditch Adobe AIR. Thanks!

@quixapp Is there any way to make Quix the default search operator in Safari? Works great like that in Chrome.

@GlenTrainor But you’re not actually gonna go, are you? I mean, it’s _camping_.

via Twitterrific in reply to GlenTrainor

@chartier Oh wow - first time I’ve heard of an app on the MAS being updated _before_ the direct download! Thanks!

via Twitterrific for Mac in reply to chartier

@chartier Where are you seeing Evernote 3 for Mac? Check for Updates says I’m up to date, and when I downloaded directly I got 2.2.3.

Another thing that sucks about iCal’s UI in Lion: it looks the same whether it has focus or not.

So BlogTV built their site on Flash, and now are campaigning Apple to support it on iOS devices. I’d call that a double-fail.

@Gartenberg HP’s decision may make more sense than most think. Margins are tiny in the PC space; if the market is now shrinking, why bother?

@geehoneybee @Seanfunk Kids have my old 3G - keep in mind you can load it up with any apps you’ve already bought.

via Twitterrific in reply to geehoneybee

Still bummed about the news of Rick Rypien’s passing. Talented guy.

The downside of Google acquiring Motorola’s 17,000 patents is that they’ll be far less likely to lobby for patent reform now.

@marcoarment Same regarding Twitter’s t.co URLs. I wish @Twitterrific would pre-fetch the actual URL so you know what you’re clicking.

via Twitterrific for Mac in reply to marcoarment

Started the day with ~200 unread emails. Goal is to end the day with an empty inbox so I can breathe. Already 90% of the way there.

via Twitterrific for Mac

@fraying That pic looks like a face from a Pixar movie about plants.

via Twitterrific for Mac in reply to fraying

@Twitterrific Alternatively, just put the focus on the Tweet Markered tweet when coming back to Twitterrific on the Mac when it has moved.

via Twitterrific for Mac in reply to Twitterrific

@Twitterrific Any chance there’s a new keyboard shortcut coming for “jump to Tweet Marker”? Useful when scrolling away to find something.

via Twitterrific for Mac

@geehoneybee Sounds cool - what’s the deal, they tap a new cask each week? Is it an event?

via Twitterrific for Mac in reply to geehoneybee

@geehoneybee They’re not, I’m just excited about a great feature I’ve been wanting for a long time.

via Twitterrific for Mac in reply to geehoneybee

@geehoneybee Sounds like fun! Too bad Fran’s out for the evening, or I’d try to invite myself over.

via Twitterrific for Mac in reply to geehoneybee

I forgot how good @Twitterrific’s keyboard shortcut support is on the Mac. Glad syncing got me to give it a longer try.

via Twitterrific for Mac

@Twitterrific They seem to assume you’ve read everything every time you use one of their clients. It’s awful, but was the only option.

via Twitterrific for Mac in reply to Twitterrific

I should point out that Tweet Marker in @Twitterrific syncs exactly where you are, instead of jumping you to the top like @echofon does.

via Twitterrific

I’m blown away by how well Tweet Marker works to sync your position in all versions of @Twitterrific! Instantly now my default clients.

via Twitterrific

@geoffgauthier TMI and congratulations at the same time!

via Twitterrific in reply to geoffgauthier

.@Twitterrific just implemented tweet stream position syncing across iPhone, iPad and Mac the way I’ve been waiting for. Killer feature.

via Twitterrific

Just me, or do pictures posted directly to Twitter offer the worst user experience for users of mobile Twitter clients of all pic hosts?

via Twitterrific

@marcoarment Kudos to you. Takes guts, good on ya.

via Twitterrific in reply to marcoarment

@marcoarment Aren’t you worried about poking the IV bear?

via Echofon in reply to marcoarment

Trying @Twitterrific again. Lack of pull-to-refresh and management of following/lists makes it feel outdated. Hope syncing beats Echofon’s.

Hey @sebastianbach - you should unblock @JimmySlims. He’s a huge fan, and he was right, you were doing a Twitter faux pas.

@geehoneybee I’ve had mine without a case for over a year. They’re pretty tough, actually.

via TweetList Pro in reply to geehoneybee

@geehoneybee You should try it for a few days. You totally get used to it, and it’s much thinner. Return the case and buy beer!
