It's rolling out. Personally, I think it's nothing but a UI upgrade and leaves performance upgrade behind.
Playing around with my Twitter clients and this is what I got. It seems that Echofon does not treat your own "reply" as a reply, tho UberTwitter does.
This morning Twitter announced a location based service as new feature. Later on, I just noticed massive tweets echo in my timeline, including my own tweets. Though I didn't find any fail whale (as usual, during crash) these echoes are still around.
I found this by accident when I need to lookup a Twitter's username within my friend list. It looked like Twitter for BlackBerry generated double username for most of (not all of) username.
Any clue on how I can fix this? Anyway, other than the size of the application, this update works better than the previous version. I like it so far, but I won't be in a rush to use this as primary application for Twitter. I just keep my UberTwitter in the background. Oh, I'm so curious, how in the hell Twitter for BlackBerry can be so huge in size while UberTwitter, with similar features, is half of it.
Topics are: Markis Kido, #indonesiaforthomas, #thomascup, Simon Santoso, Nonton Thomas Cup, Kido-hendra. Several minutes ago Taufik Hidayat was one of trending as well.
This was happening on Thomas Cup final event between Indonesia and China at Malaysia.
I didn't realize until now that UberTwitter is updating its application to 0.971. I really think that it's under the hood update, nothing to see outside. I'm still having fun with Twitter for BlackBerry, but it's good to have an update for UberTwitter.
It's here, public beta Twitter for BlackBerry. And now it has an option to remove the navigation bar and tweet box. Oh, and it can show notification for @Mention and Replies only. Yet, it's beta, it's kind of buggy. I repeatedly experience lag during entering my tweet and navigating tweets.
