Twitme 1.6 Beta 2 release

November 23rd, 2008

Finally i was abled to proccess the litle bugs that where found in Twitme 1.6 Beta 1.  I have made some changes since version 1.6b1 that apply to usabilty and readabilty.

With Twitme 1.6 Beta 2 there is a litle bug for new users that does not allow saving username and password for Twitter. To workaround this install the current stable version of Twitme (Version 1.5.2) and setup your personal settings. Then upgrade your Twitme to the 1.6 Beta 2 here. PS: This bug has been fixed in Twitme 1.6 Beta 3 for developers whinch will be released next week.

Twitme 1.5.2 (Stable)

On this version you will see that i have the Followers window and the Updates with below each other, This allows you to get a better overview of your community and messages.

Snow Leopard

November 18th, 2008

Al jaren volg ik Apple net als de meeste zelf respecterende geek die om me heen. Maar vandaag zat ik op de zaak lekker te surfen toen het in eens tot me door drong. Het zal volgens de voorspellingen volgend jaar Januari zijn dat Apple de nieuwe versie van zijn besturings systeem (Mac os) dan eindelijk aan het publiek toont en zelfs uitbrengt.

Microsoft Exchange Support

Iets wat voor het bedrijfsleven extreem handig is is dat Snow Leopard “Microsoft Exchange” zal ondersteunen. Net als met de voorgangers van Snow Leopard had de recente 2.0 update van de ipod en iphone firmware ook al ondersteuning voor Microsoft exchange. De ondersteuning voor Microsoft Exchange betekend betere integratie in OSX voor mail, gebruikers en kalenders van af windows. Zo als ik al zij doet je ipod dit nu heb je bijna geen Mobileme meer om overal je contacten bij je te houden want nu kan je via je imac en je ipod de zelfde contacten bij houden.

Nu dat Apple werkt aan het uitbreiden van windows support hoop ik toch echt dat ze ook de tijd hebben genomen om de filesharing te verbeteren want onder de huidige versie van leopard is dat echt een drama. De huidige versie van leopart heefd namelijk de akelijke gewoonte gedeelde mappen in een windows netwerk niet goed te herkennen. Voor de lezers die dit ook ervaren heb ik mischien nog een intresante tip.

Tip: In een finder scherm druk op de command key + k en typ dan smb://<ip van de doel machine> en als je dan op enter drukt zul je zien dat het wonder geschied is .. Leopard kan wel degelijk met windows overweg :) .

November 3rd, 2008


I have decided to pre-release this next version of Twitme because this release (version 1.6 ) will be of such a big caliber that it really needs to be tested properly.There fore i am calling out for the community to test this version before it officially comes out.

Update: Thanks to the communitie i have found i few things that will be fixed in the beta 2 version for Twitme 1.6

  • Followers – There is an annoying gray border below every Follower (Be gone)
  • Twitmessage Posted time – Bug in the calculations of when i time line message was posted.

  • Wordpress 2.7 – Move the Followers and update box closer to each other
  • Private message indicator (See screenshots).
  • See your Followers on a Google map

If you have any other sugestions please let me know.

If you download this pre-release of Twitme you have to know that this version is not yet the final version. This release might still contain some bugs, that’s why I’m hoping that you all provide me with with feedback on what you think about it and how it could be done better.
