A Twitter Client With A Brilliant UI Design
There is one reason I use the Twitter iPhone client over any other, it’s a killer user interface design element. Here is the normal stream view
Now, simply slide your finger over any of the Tweets, and a menu of options are opened up. Now I can act on the tweet without having to open it up. Brilliant.
Try it out, very cool.
Twitter Launches A Client For Windows Phone 7
Twitter released a version of their mobile device client for Windows Phone 7. This version of the client uses a platform and design they call Metro. This application also lets you view your Twitter data through Pivots, described as pages.
From the Twitter blog:
We dug into the platform with a development partner, IdentityMine, who helped us get started creating our application. We used an open source REST API library, Tweet Sharp, as the foundation for our app, and IdentityMine will release some significant improvements back into open source for everyone to use.
Wow, releasing this application back into the community as open source. That will let developers take the code and create their own versions, based off the work Twitter and IdentityMine have already done. Nice to see them ahead of the curve.

Timpanogos Cave Hike
This morning I hiked up to the opening of Timpanogos cave with Gina, Jess, Vickie and Larry. First time for me, and man did it kick my butt. I’ll do it again, probably several more times. I really want to take more pictures. I was so exhausted I didn’t really care. I did take a few though, below.
Here is a link about the cave, the hike, and the area. http://bit.ly/bpuqbj
