Yatca gets an update
Paper Clip

We talk about different twitter apps a lot here and it’s mainly because every single twitter client app seems to fall short in one regard or the other. We wait patiently for an in-house twitter app made directly from RIM (BlackBerry). The people (person?) at YATCA are in the same boat. The only difference is they made their own twitter client app to use until BlackBerry makes one.

Yatca is one of my favorite twitter client apps simple because it’s simple. One of the cooler features is that it can integrate into the message box. New tweets come in like they’re new mail. It has a notification icon whenever you get a new one too. It’s simple so it has a small footprint; use it to tweet, reply, read other tweets and see people that reply to you.. that’s it.

Because it does integrate into your message box, I wouldn’t recommend it for anyone who follows a lot of people because your inbox will be overflowed with tweets.

This new update seems to run a little smoother.

You can download the version for you at http://yatca.wordpress.com.

tweeteev makes another appearance
Paper Clip

I got to play around with the newest unfinished version of tweeteev today. Tweeteev is another yet another twitter client application (this, btw, is the name of another twitter client called YATCA). When tweeteev came about, the makers stated …

…the interface, features and experience that Tweeteev provides will totally change the way you use Twitter on your mobile phone. Stay tuned, coming soon on a mobile device near you.

So I’ve been waiting for a while now.

The first version that was leaked earlier this year was buggier than a South American rain forest but it did show some promise.

This new version that came out is even better. Yah, it’s slower then a snail on a salty desert, but I can definitely see it being my twitter client of choice once they speed up the app (if they can speed up the app). Much easier said than done.

You can try it out by going here.

The Bible for the BlackBerry
Paper Clip

I’ve been waiting for this update pretty much since I got my BlackBerry Storm. Youversion has come out with a free version of the Bible for the BlackBerry Storm. Until now, I’ve been using the Bold version on my phone, but the incompatibility made pushing the buttons nearly impossible.

This update, however, runs near perfect on the BlackBerry Storm. Navigation is intuitive. You can choose between a countless number of different versions of the Bible. I think I counted 16 different versions (most of them of which I’ve never heard of before). There’s a daily read reference for those who are looking for something like that. Another nice feature is that it seems every verse has a user-submitted commentary about it available for download. One last feature is a “live” button that displays events that are happening in your area, but apparently, there isn’t much in my area.

I guess the one con of this program is that it requires an internet connection at all times to read which makes loading pages a little slower and impossible to use in areas without reception. (Are there still areas like that? Maybe on a plane?).

one more time

I installed then deleted TweetGenius again today. 3rd time this month.

Is something wrong with me? Or is it just that I’m dissatisfied with SocialScope.

no… that can’t be it.

There’s something new in the horizon though

Well, not new, but updated. A new version of the popular client UberTwitter is available but it’s only a beta version. I like where the developers are going with it. It’s pretty and it’s loaded and I mean LOADED with features. This version is still pretty buggy though. Can’t wait to see the final product.
