Ever since Twitter acquired Loren Brichter’s Tweetie, we all wondered what was going to happen to Tweetie for Mac - the most popular Twitter client on Mac OS X. Then Twitter platform / API head Ryan Sarver confirmed with a post on the official development group that they had acquired the Mac version as well as part of the deal with Loren. That was a huge relief, as we all feared that with new job Loren could drop the development of his great Mac app.

Then Twitter announced they would discontinue Basic Auth support by the end of June and we all figured - well, Tweetie for Mac is going to be updated and we’ll keep using it. Developers started updating their clients to work with OAuth, but Tweetie for Mac was standing still. We kept hoping. Weeks passed by.

On June 1st, we freaked out. The Month of Judgement came and Tweetie for Mac was still based on Basic Auth. “Where the hell is my OAuth Tweetie?”, someone wrote.

Guys, chill. Tweetie for Mac is going to be updated later this month.

Cupidtino has launched this afternoon, and it’s the perfect breeding ground for everyone hip and in-style sporting Apple’s latest.

If you’ve been living under a giant iPod Touch for the past three months, you might need to know that the WWDC is officially kicking off in 3 days, with a keynote from Apple CEO Steve Jobs on June 7th.

It’s gonna be a great event, and we’re sure Steve will be able to make it even better.

Like a last Get a Mac ad.

You think we’re asking too much? We’ve collected 7 WWDC related videos that can give you a quick idea of what happened in the past. Check them out after the break.

Well it was a good run at least. With AT&T no longer selling the iPhone 3G according to the Boy Genius Report, we can only expect the iPhone 3GS to claim the 3G’s current price point as the next iPhone makes its induction. And with 3G being discontinued so soon, we expect the next iPhone to make its way to market by the end of the month.

I’m not into photography or film, so I have no idea why focusing multiple DSLR cameras wirelessly would be beneficial when you can’t even look at what the hell you’re focusing - but don’t let my ignorance of such topics ruin a perfectly badass device. WirelessIris is an iPhone app that allows you to focus multiple lenses in conjunction with a receiver.

Something AT&T didn’t expect when it changed their plans on Monday was the influx of customers who are now racing to purchase an iPad 3G in hopes of getting on the old $30 Unlimited plan, which ends June 7th. The New York Times reports that many customers are downright dissatisfied with AT&T’s new policies, and with the iPad 3G at a shortage, they’re panicking they’ll have to settle for presumably worse. Not wanting to lose potential customers, however, AT&T is considering allowing people to pre-purchase iPad 3G units and sign up for the plan they want as to alleviate people’s fears. Still, even if many are arguing that these plans are actually better for you, I argue that a savings in only $5 doesn’t constitute capped data; many customers (even if many are uninformed) are incredibly concerned about these new policies. AT&T, you may want to make a special exception for the iPad as to uphold the original strategy.
