Loren Brichter, an Apple programme developer, recently revealed that Tweetie is going to be updated on the Mac and is set to be released extremely soon.
The new app will not only work on the iPod and iPhone but will also be specifically developed for use on the iPad, with many new features that are not available on the existing app.
He made the announcement after receiving the Ars Design Award for Tweetie on Mac and this news comes after much anticipation.
He said, "The goal is to exceed the Twitter iPhone app in the iPad. I swear the reunification is coming between iPhone, Mac, and iPad."
As a result Mr Brichter believes that the Mac is waning and will soon be replaced by the iPad, this is an opinion he shares with American writer Dan Lyons. However, this does not mean the Mac will disappear immediately as it is likely to remain popular for many years to come. In fact, Mr Brichter said that if this wasn’t the case then he would not be developing new Mac software.
Although he did say that programming IT solutions will become a lot easier as soon as IT developers come to see the growing popularity of the iPad.
He added, "If you break the idea that we have to use software keyboards the traditional way, there's so much potential for insanely fast programming.
Think about keyboard buttons becoming whole variable names. You could become so efficient while programming!"
As Twitter has become a must have social outlet for media firms and businesses updating their web presence, the app may become extremely beneficial for many out of office web based workers.
