One more thing... Another great addition to this feature would be to change the colour of visited URLs. That way when the latest trend URL is re-tweeted via different shortening services (and automatically expanded by Tweetie), you'll already know if you've seen it before.

Think about how much time we could save!

Thanks guys, I'm glad I wasn't the only interested in this feature!

There are some great points however personally I'd really like to see the full URL expanded. With URLs displayed in a blue font, eyes can easily skim over the the longest URLs. (I've found this to be the case with EventBox which I find handles this feature perfectly.)

As great as the hover and other options sound, I think it's much faster and convenient to read through multiple tweets featuring already expanded URL rather than having to hover over each individual one.

Thanks for the info ashponders, although I'd really like to see the details included within the app - regardless of how it appears. In fact I think anything at all would appear less goofy then a link to the Twitter site.

The iPhone version of Tweetie (and even other iPhone and Mac apps) seem to do a pretty good job despite the limitations.

I'd really appreciate if you could reconsider.

Display lists of followers/following within the app

It would be great to see the list of followers/following displayed within the app under the information section of a selected user. (It currently opens up the the related page on the Twitter site.)
