It happened one day when I was casually checking my twitter feed. The feed on my iPhone looked pretty different than the feed I was looking at in my Twitter client of choice for the past while, Twitterific. I looked a little more carefully to verify. Yep, what was missing was the new Retweet functionality. When people that I follow had used the new Twitter implemented Retweets, they didn’t appear in my timeline at all. Apparently, everyone also got the signal that the new retweets were fine to use on the same day, because all of a sudden, lots of people that I follow started using them (missed that memo). Well, this would not do, I needed to be able to see when someone I followed retweeted something interesting. Thus began my quest to find a new twitter client that would perform the functions that I needed. My current client, Twitterific, had been lacking in many ways for quite some time and, at this point, I only used it to read my stream, rather than actually compose my tweets, or anything else you can do with twitter (searches, lists, etc). So I made a list of things that I wanted my Twitter client to do, and began downloading. And tweeting. Thanks to all my friends that put up with my annoying ‘Now tweeting from ***.
