Socialite: A Cocktail Made With Social Networks
More than a year ago, a small company called The Cosmic Machine put their first app, EventBox, in public beta. EventBox was a great app in many ways: it was a nice Twitter client and had a slew of other great services. As time passed, the developer, who was amazingly responsive, added new features, like photo upload, identi.ca, OneRiot, and Digg (which had been removed earlier). There was, however, one major problem: EventBox could only let you use one Twitter account.
The developer began to target this issue and decided that since it was such a large rewrite, he would fix some other limitations with the app as well. He rewrote the majority of the app and decided to release this second beta as MultiBox for the time being. MultiBox lacked some of the basic features such as the Unread and Flagged folders, but brought amazing stability and user interface improvements as well as multiple Twitter accounts and a bunch of other new additions.
Multibox was impressive; so much so it apparently attracted the attention of the famous Realmac Software, developers of LittleSnapper and RapidWeaver. Realmac decided to buy out EventBox and give it a new name: Socialite. The following is a review of this new app, albeit with a slight bit of longing for the old EventBox.
WideMail for Snow Leopard Public Beta Available
This is the news many Mac users were waiting for. WideMail, the popular plugin which brings full-screen capabilities to Mail.app, is finally available as a public beta for Snow Leopard. I’ve been using Letterbox for a while now (since I needed full-screen mode but WM wasn’t available) and I’m quite satisfied with it. However, after a few tests I must admit this WM update seems really interesting and has more features than Letterbox.
