twidroid – Update to Version 3.2.0 coming #Andriod #Twitter #twidroid

Posted by ParaCAD @ 1:02 pm in Android Apps Motorola Droid Twitter Updated.

Normall I'll keep my news and posts based around the iPhone. But since this is a Twitter App. And i'm regular on Twitter, plus I really like trying out the different iPhone Twitter applications out there, I'm assuming there a few Android device fans (Not that there's anything wrong with that!) who would love to be kept in the know.

So here is the latest bit of info from the change log:

(upcoming) / 3.2.0:

    new: load specific twitter list on startup
    new: directly open twidroid on links in emails like http://twitter.com/username
    new: korean localization
    new: remember timeline position added to twitter lists
    new: auto-geotag replies when geotagging is enabled
    new: prevent protected tweets from being retweeted
    fix: RT sent from wrong account on certain phones

10-03-07 / 3.1.9:

    hotfix release so we needed to push this asap
    fix: number of notifications
    fix: for recipient in direct message with realnames enabled
    removed @reply setting when switching from directmessage view to
    timeline

10-03-06 / 3.1.8:

    improvements in sync of saved searches
    fix: notification counter

Last.fm-Twitter Application #iPhone #lastfm #Twitter @lastfm_love

Posted by ParaCAD @ 9:52 am in Apps Music Twitter iPhone iPod Touch.

Maybe this is old news, I don't know. But i found it useful. Last.fm is a great service for listening to great music. I've had my account for a long time, but never used it much. Now that I've FINALLY installed the Last.fm app on my iPhone, I'll have to say its my new favorite music streaming app. But I did come to find out one thing that is definitely missing, a share function to tweet what you're currently listening to. The app is lacking in this area, with nothing more than the ability to share with 'email contact' or a 'Last.fm friend' (and if you come across my profile you'll see I only have one friend -@vazguard-, it's sad i know). So neither of those options are really of much use to me.

Well I did a little searching in hopes that I'll find something to alleviate the pain of not being to tell all my followers aka tweeps, twerps, tweeple, what track I "love" and is currently playing as I listen to Last.fm through the day.

To my surprise and joy I found this, LastFM love/twitter mashup. All you'll need to do to get started is type in your Last.FM account username, Sign in to twitter, allow the LastFM love/twitter application access to twitter, just as any other app you'd allow.

Yes, I know you can send your #lastfm tweets from your pc/laptop Last.fm account as @roeiboot graciously made me aware of (thx guy!). But this is directed at those that primarily use the Last.fm iPhone app like myself. I'm sure I'm not the only one wants and has found this LastFM love/twitter mashup but I felt it should put it out there for all others to enjoy.

So finally, once you're all set up here's what you do:
Start listening to you favorite station via/ the Last.fm iPhone application and as one of the songs play and compells you to tell others about it, just hit the little "love" Heart at the bottom left of the app (see the screenie) and thats it! You've successfully posted your #lastfm song Twitter.

See below the example of a song I posted today:

qStatus has been updated. The UI looks pretty good. Much nicer in my opinion. And there is more. Check out below for more and let us know what you think.

"qStatus is a one of a kind status update application that lets you tweet and update your Facebook status like never before. It is straight to the point, super fast, ultra cool and darn effective. qStatus saves you the hassle of updating your Facebook status and Twitter separately by doing both for you instantly."
