Bigbird

April 7, 2009

Chances are you’re reading this on the stunning redesign of atebits.com. Thanks to Tim Van Damme of Made by Elephant for his brilliant work.

This redesign is in celebration of the imminent release of a new app, Tweetie for Mac. In many ways it is the bigger cousin of the iPhone version (hence the codename: “Bigbird”). Tweetie for Mac is more than a port – in fact, it’s a complete rewrite. The new core is faster, more stable, and more extensible than its predecessor. Not only will it form the foundation of the Mac version, but also the foundation of the next generation of Tweetie 2.0 for iPhone.

I will posting more details, screenshots, and maybe even some screencasts of Tweetie for Mac later this week. Be sure to follow @atebits and @tweetie for up-to-the-minute info on the imminent release.
