Tweetie 2 Is On the App Store

October 11, 2009

Tweetie 2 has probably been the most awaited, and ‘hyped up’ Twitter client release, ever. This is not really, arguable…

Loren Brichter, the developer behind Tweetie 1, as well as Tweetie for Mac has made enough money for a living as he’s mentioned on the Atebits blog. Now, Loren has released Tweetie 2. (iTunes link) The only Twitter client for iPhone. Tweetie 2 is full of new features, of course. Tweetie 1 was a huge success, and Tweetie 2 has been that successful already… Tweetie 1 redefined the Twitter client, and Tweetie 2 will do it again.

Loren announced the imminent release of Tweetie 2, after dropping out of the spotlight for four months. This man, as many apple related news outlets have said, must not get any sleep. four months of speaking nothing but Objective-C and programming a new Twitter client for iPhone must be worth the lucrative riches awaiting at the end. Trust me, Loren’s making some real money right now. How many Tweetie 1 users won’t buy Tweetie 2? maybe a handful. These people are woefully unhappy with life. Tweetie is the masterpiece of Twitter clients. King of the Hill. The best of the best.

I’d like to write an iPhone app, and make a living off it. I’ll dream for a while longer…

Purchase Tweetie 2 if you haven’t bought it already. Or upgrade. Here.

MacBook Pro SSD Upgrade

October 8, 2009

I have installed a new Corsair P128 128GB ssd in my ‘so very, old’ MacBook Pro (late 2008 model) I won’t go into details about how to replace the old hhd, or how to open it… but, it’s a very fast process, you just have to keep track of all the screws. You must also have a Torqs T6 screwdriver. I will post two pictures, (one) of the old HDD in my MacBook Pro. and a (second), with my new SSD installed. The install process took about 40 minutes.

My new Corsair P128 SSD is 3 to 4 times faster than my old hhd. Everything loads faster, applications are snappier, my MBP turns on in 18 seconds. It’s amazing, very, very fast.
