  • You guys should actually try the Twitter app before you *ahem* comment on it. It’s actually REALLY well done (besides the big obnoxious tab buttons on the main screen). It’s significantly faster, has a lot more features, lock screen notifications, live tile count, etc.. that make it a far superior app than to whatever trash they’ve been peddling for the last few years.

    In fact, I’ve used the iOS and Android versions of the official Twitter app and the Windows Phone version is the best one by far. The other two versions completely eschew native design elements, but the Windows Phone version embraces them.

    Oh, and there is in fact swiping of tabs.

  • HTPC build/rebuild app: My channel logos. I like the visual improvement to the guide as well as the ability to increase the number of rows displayed so you can see more guide/channels at one time. Donations over $3.40us will allow these features, well worth it.

    This is definitely one of those apps you want to save the installer for rebuilds, it not you’ll probably be donating again to access the download!

  • Fair points, Jeff…and we’ll try to include your comment on the next show. But c’mon…tabs? On Windows Phone? Clearly it riled me up! 😉
