Customer Reviews on iTunes

A complete downgrade
by FU EA

The inability to directly open links from the timeline, plus the inability to browse the timeline while links load make this a huge step backward from the previous versions. What is twitter thinking lately? I gave it two stars because it is at least stable and things do seem to load a bit faster, but what was once a very useful client is now basically broken. And I’m reluctant to spend money on a third-party client, as twitter seems intent on eventually locking them all out. Again, what are they thinking?

Not impressed…
by Mpdrew

I was pleased with the previous version. This update took a step back in my opinion.

i dont like it, v5
by aruffr13

with the old version i was be able to watch a webpage and see all tweets on the left.. but now when i open a link just open a full view of the web page. I don’t like.

Some of the things which Twitter say are new in version 5 are:

You can expand tweets with a single touch to see photo’s and media,
See who has followed, mentioned, retweeted or favourited your tweets,
See which accounts or tweets are favourited by your friends,
See what topics are trending,
Easily find accounts to follow,
Add a new header photo,
and other improvements, fixes and polishes.

Why not make up your mind and Download the new Twitter app for iPad now from iTunes, let us know what you think!

What is Google Plus?

June 26, 2013July 11, 2012 by Nik Kingsman


For those tired of Facebook, there is a new friend in town by the name of Google Plus. It has taken off by storm with over 10 million users signing up the first week. People are now familiar with sights such as MySpace and Facebook, so new users are not uncomfortable with navigating around a new social network. I find that people who are tired with the privacy issues of other social media sites are finding Google+ a refreshing new find.One of the coolest things about Google Plus is the feature known as “Circles”. You can now classify people into certain circles such as “friends”, “work” and “family”. You can read the feeds from everyone with one main feed or you can just read the updates from a certain circle. This is a nice streamline feature so you have the option to just keep up with the feeds of your choice. While in a one circle, you will get notifications below to let you know you have messages from other circles. Also, a great feature of the circles is that when you post a status update it will give you the option of which circles you want the update to post to. You can also select for it to post to a single circle, person or multiple circles. This is perfect if you don’t want your comment to be seen by work aquaintances and only shared with your friends or family. The chat feature is great and you can choose to chat within a certain circle or with the entire group.The streaming of the conversations is awesome with the fact that all new posts will show up at the top of the feeds with no need to search through all the pages to get the latest updates. Photo sharing is easy and you have the choices of which circles you want to share your photos with. You can just drag and drop photos straight from your desktop into Google Plus, use their upload feature to browse pictures from your computer or upload straight from an Android or IOS app. Two great features that the other social media sites don’t offer is something called Hangouts and Sparks. Hangouts takes chat to a whole new level with the option to video chat with a group of friends or a circle all on one screen. You will start a hangout and then invite friends or an entire circle to join, however only 10 can video chat at one time. With Sparks you can read content from the web that you are interested in without leaving your social network. Both of these make Google Plus stand out above the rest. To download Google Plus, go to www.Google.com and type in Google Plus. On the top right hand corner, you will see a red sign up box. Follow the instructions to download Google + to your computer and you are on to a whole new, fresh social network experience.

What is Twitter?

June 26, 2013July 10, 2012 by Nik Kingsman


What is Twitter? Twitter is a social media platform that allows users to post messages of up to 140 characters. These messages are then sent to whoever happens to be following your feed. There are many reasons why a person would want to use a service such as Twitter. Social Media Helps Connect You Using a social media site such as Twitter allows you to connect with others who think like you. For example, say you were a lawyer. You could follow other lawyers, judges and anyone else who was an expert in the legal profession. In return, these people would then follow your feed. Those who follow you could send you links, direct messages regarding job opportunities or just have a conversation about current events. Spread The Word About Something Big You will notice that there are certain words and phrases that are trending. A trending topic is something that many people are talking about at the same time. It could be that a celebrity died, the Supreme Court issued an important ruling or another anticipated event was taking place. Tailored Trends bring you closer blog.twitter.com/2012/06/tailor… — Twitter (@twitter) June 12, 2012 If you want to join in the conversation, you can use a hash tag next to your message. For example, you could put the # symbol next to a certain word or phrase to help get it noticed. Anyone who types that word or phrase into the search bar will see your message among thousands of others. Why 140 Characters Why can’t your messages be 142 characters? The answer to that lies in the fact that Twitter was designed to be like a text messaging service for the world. The standard text message on a cell phone is 140 characters long. However, you can compress your link using different link condensing services. There are also third-party services that allow you to exceed the limit. How Do I Sign Up Signing up for a Twitter account is easy. All you need to do is provide your name, email address and a username. You will then click on a confirmation link sent to the email address that you have provided. Once you click the link, you are all set to start using the service. Using Twitter is a fun and unique experience. It allows you to talk to others around the world from the comfort of your own home. Social media allows you to grow your professional network, connect with others to advance social causes or just be social. How you use it is all up to you.
