Tsaot’s Pocket Twitter Reader
Tsaot's Twitter reader
Tsaot’s Pocket Twitter reader is a twitter feed reader for Touchscreen Pocket PCs running Windows Mobile 2003 or later (I’ve only tested it on 2003). Currently its very lightweight with the ability to only display tweets in you main, @reply, or direct feeds. Road map for future features include:
Send tweets
Reply to Tweets
Favorite Tweets
Search
Group users
multiple accounts open at once
Prettier interface (It’s purely functional right now)
Transition Animation
As to why I would create a feed reader for WM 2003, that’s because my Dell Axim X3i still works and I find that I like having it on my desk as a dedicated Twitter screen. I have in the past used TweetDeck but then it’s just one more window in the mess of a dozen or so. This was my solution, take my old Dell Axim that despite being replaced by my current phone, was still good, and make it a dedicated Twitter screen. So far it has worked out great. There is a lot that need to be done with it to make it what I want, but it’s already proven useful.
Please note that this is an early release of this program so there may be bugs, but there is little enough code that I’m not expecting them at this stage. If you find anything, let me know in the comments or tell me on Twitter; I’m @Tsaot.
