February 21st at 11:45pm / The Verge / 0 opinionsTwitter has just announced the availability of sorely-needed updates for its Android and iOS clients that appear to offer significant tweaks across the board.

The Best Facebook Apps for iPad 0
April 15th at 6:55am / Cult of Mac / 0 opinionsFacebook is yet to release an official application for the iPad, and with its founder Mark Zuckerberg claiming the device was “not mobile,” we’re not likely to see one anytime soon. Zuckerberg wants us to use Facebook in our iPad’s web browser, which is fine for some, but others prefer a dedicated application that brings simple photo and video uploading, better chat support, and a user interface better suited to a touchscreen device. It’s no wonder, then, that iOS developers have attempted to fill this ...

March 3rd at 5:50pm / Gizmodo / 0 opinionsTwitter for iPhone and iPad just got a major update that's not just about bug fixes; the app's compose screen has gotten an overhaul to make it cleaner, and easier to upload photos and video. But the most interesting enhancement looks to be the Quick Bar (iPhone-only), which sits on top of your timeline and lets you cycle through trends, either across Twitter or in your specific location. Except! It looks as though the Quick Bar is really just a way to sneak ads into your timeline. A way that you can't...

You're a natural! Now trot on over to your computer and plug it in with that fancy 30-pin connector (also, don't lose that connector—it's proprietary to Apple).

Twitter for iPad With Unique New Interface Now Available to Download 0
September 2nd at 4:09am / Cult of Mac / 0 opinionsThe lack of an official, native version of the Twitter client for the iPad has been a puzzling omission, but now the big blue bird has set things right, having pushed their native iPad app to iTunes. I haven’t had a chance to play with it, but it seems that a big part of the native client’s delay was because Twitter had big ideas for the app, grafting a truly unique (and, perhaps, a bit quirky) interface on top. Gizmodo’s Matt Buchanan explains the new interface: The interface starts out straightforward...

The iPhone’s Official (and Best) Twitter App Is Now Free 0
May 19th at 5:01pm / Gizmodo / 0 opinionsWhen Twitter swallowed Tweetie maker Atebits, they declared that an official Twitter client—a la Android's—was on its way. You'll be happy to hear that Twitter has barely changed the iPhone's best Twitter app, except where it counts: Price.

Often, it's not. Prof. Dealzmodo's here to help you tell the difference. Oscar Wilde was right about cynics: they know the cost of everything and the value of nothing. On your next trip to the App Store, don't be cynical. Be smart—even if it means spending a little money.
