“Things Folders” Brings Things To Your Finder

If you’re a Things user on Mac OS X, I bet that you always wanted to be able to quickly link its database to your Finder.

Osfoora Goes 1.5 on iPhone: Retina Graphics, Bug Fixes - iPhone OS 3.1.x Users, Don’t Update

Another interesting update just showed up on iTunes: Osfoora, for Twitter (the iPhone version) has been updated to the 1.5 version, which introduces support for the Retina Display, a better geo-tagging and lots of bug fixes.

We previously reviewed Osfoora for iPhone here (but it’s got a lot better since then) and Osfoora HD for iPad here. I’m currently using Osfoora on my iPad but Twitterrific on the iPhone. Could this new update make me switch again? We’ll see.

Osfoora, for Twitter is available at $2.99 in the App Store.

UPDATE: Roger Byrne (@imrogb) reports that if you’re still running iPhone OS 3.1.x  (it seems like he’s running 3.1.2) Osfoora won’t work. A bug? Maybe. If you experience it, please report to @Osfoora.
