The First Review of Tweetworks for iPhone
Nothing like a little cold water to wake you up on a Wednesday morning after releasing a product you have been working on for months. Below is the first review of the Tweetworks for iPhone application as submitted to the iTunes app store.
Does not seem very useful? – ★
by Ninja Twitter – Version 1.0 – 27 April 2010
Just got the app… Have 10000s of followers, nothing happen on the main screen and groups… I must be missing something… Maybe usability issue? Looking foward to 1.1… Back to Tweetie… 4 Now!
Ugh! Remember in the Empire Strikes Back when Han Solo tries to make the jump to light speed and the Millennium Falcon’s hyperdrive won’t turn over? Yeah, it feels a bit like that.
I really do wish Apple would provide a way for me to respond to “Ninja Twitter” so I could let him or her know that we have a bug on the API side of things that was the cause of the trouble and that we are working feverishly to fix it.
Some problems just don’t surface until you get a bunch of people using the product. It’s hard to test a web service fully without flipping on the switch and letting the world in. So, last night we had an issue with Twitter mentions not coming in and matching up with Tweetworks threads properly and this morning the entire site crashed which was awesome.
I promise we are working on getting things working as they should to give you the best conversational tools available on the market. Stick with me, this is going to be fun.
