There's no shortage of Twitter clients out there that will work well on your iPhone. Twitter even offers its own: m.twitter.com. But iTweet takes the cake for us. The client offers a great UI, and most importantly, the ability to download only new tweets each time you refresh, saving a lot of time and bandwidth if you're using AT&T's snail-slow EDGE data network.

I just saw this really nice mention of iTweet,  my Twitter UI and iPhone web app, here on Wired.com's Epicenter blog.  Thanks guys!

(This article contains a voting system for "best app".  If you enjoy using iTweet, please visit this page and click the green "UP" arrow to vote for iTweet!)

I've also received a few requests now for a BlackBerry version of iTweet.  I have never made a BlackBerry app before but how hard can it be, right?  I will try to create a BB iTweet as soon as possible for those of you who don't have iPhones yet. 

In other iTweet news, I'm working on a complete rewrite of the desktop app (and the iPhone app pending a review of the upcoming iPhone SDK).  It's lean, mean, and Ajaxy.  My favorite new feature: Speed Tweet mode!  It's so much fun I can't stop Twittering lately.

Reminder again: please give iTweet an "UP" vote here.  Thanks!

The January 2008 issue of iProng Magazine just came out and I am featured in an interview about iTweet, the Twitter UI for the iPhone (and now the desktop) that is my pet project.  iProng is an iPod- and iPhone-centric website, magazine, and podcast that is headed up by Bill Palmer (no relation, I swear!).

iProng's tagline is "Voice of the iPod Generation" and this really describes the focus of their collective efforts well.  The magazine and podcasts feature Mac-geek interests such as Macworld Expo articles, interviews with Web/iPhone developers like Joe Hewitt (and, um, me I guess), coverage of PodCamp, BlogWorld Expo and VON events, and also cultural interests like album/concert reviews, interviews with musicians like Silverchair, Rebecca Loebe and Internet darling Matthew Ebel, features about yoga podcasting, iPod games and more.  There's a little something for everyone.

iProng has a main website where you can contact them for information, read reviews and find out where they are appearing at events.  You can find the magazines available for download here.  They are also provided in an iPhone-friendly format here (nice touch!)

I've been listening to the podcasts for a while and I'll vouch that they're as entertaining as the magazine.  You can listen to them from your browser or subscribe to them in iTunes for free.

Bill lives in Los Angeles and has a remarkable talent for getting pictures of himself with celebrities.  His Twitter updates often make me laugh and miss living in Hollywood, you can follow him here if you're interested.
