Tweeter! Changelog
What's new in Tweeter! 1.0
Jan 8, 2010- New
- Resizable full screen display
- Images visible on the timeline; they load in the background to minimize delay
- Add/ Remove friends right from your desktop
- Send direct messages to your friends ( replies are still sent the same way: @username )
- Notification on updates to the friends timeline, even when minimized to the system tray ( the public timeline is going to be different in any case, so no notifications there! )
- Customizable UI ( you can set the colors i.e. :D )
- Turn off notifications from the system tray when minimized
- Select a format for the data from Twitter in case of problems (the default 'JSON' option is still recommended and is required for most operations)
- Bug fixes/ Improvements
- Better image caching. Fixed bug with a potential for causing memory to run out
- Images will load in a separate thread from the display and will update the timeline later if it is still showing
- Reduced the refresh rate when minimized to reduce chances of denial of service due to high refresh rate ( Twitter offers 70 fetches per 60 minutes of your protected data; just over 1 fetch per minute )
- Minor UI changes with improved icons
