I was going crazy with the quality of Twitter apps for android to the point of thinking about writting my own. And then ADC2 came and if was the small nudge I needed to shut up and trey to prove I could do it better.
Two and a half months later (which seems to be a common theme) I submitted "Swift Twitter App" on the Social category. It has also been available on the market for a little over two weeks, and that was an inmense help in ironing the last few kinks (who knew that twitter doesn't mind an extra space in login names when authenticating, but fails miserably in other calls?) And in figuring out which additional features people wanted. The last week before the deadline was a little hectic, dealing with my regular job and two kids, and on Monday, a fractured arm. But in the end I managed to add a decent set of features (some a first for twitter clients, like save for later and retweetability counter) and even leave for vacation on sunday. So now I'm by the beach, writting this on my android phone, nursing my broken arm, and keeping track of how my app is doing using twitter itself. Oh, and website is at http://www.swift-app.com/ Good luck to all!
