Ever since I got an iPhone I have found it easier to stay connected. One of the best apps for keeping me connected to Twitter is Tweetie.

At first I was hesitant to pay for an app that I knew nothing about. This atebits company didn’t have a desktop app, so I was unsure as what to expect from them. After jumping around in the forums and asking some questions of my own, I knew that I had to get this program. My friends were surprised that I paid for an app, because I am cheapskate :)

I have to say that Tweetie has paid off for me. The best feature of the program is that I can run multiple accounts in the app. That has been helpful, since there are four Twitter accounts that I manage.

Last month I told Albert (@iAlbert) about the program, because he was managing his Twitter accounts with different programs on his iPhone. I told him that the app was $2.99 and management of multiple accounts was simple. He has been using the app and loves it, sure beats all of those others apps he had installed!

There are other great aspects of Tweetie too. The multiple display options for viewing the timeline (my preference is dark), the abililty to save drafts for posting later, and the ever-funny poopularity enhancer. If you are a fan of the fart apps, you will like the popularity enhancer.

With the launch of Tweetie for Mac and all of the rave reviews about it, it seems that atebits has made using Twitter that much more simple and fun with these great apps.

Cheers!

For those of you that were in attendance at PodCampAZ, you own some SWAG from Tweet Tees. For those of you that couldn’t make it, here is your chance to grab a wristband and button (they come in a set). Now I only have 5 of these left, because they were going faster than beer at a kegger. To get yourself some goodies from Tweet Tees, be sure to look for me on Twitter (@jacobburke) as I will tweet out a question everyday, starting on November 17.

The person that answers the question correctly will win a wristband and button from Tweet Tees.

Be on the lookout come November 17 for your chance to win!

Cheers!

UPDATE

After going through my notes from PodCampAZ, I discovered that I still have some stickers! In addition to the wristband and button, each daily winner will also receive two Tweet Tees stickers!
