Regarding groups: Twitter-native "lists" are coming soon. Developers have had to make their own solutions to that need to date. Most apps will likely support that feature soon.

You know, just keeping Tweetie 1.x around for this isn't a bad idea. – wazungu, on October 13, 2009 00:25

Paul Papadimitriou's reply to "Choosing to post to Ping.fm or just post to Twitter" was just promoted to the most useful! wazungu and 2 other people think it's one of the best replies.

A check box is a nice idea. Doesn't add an extra step.

Thought it through a bit, and I'm about to reverse myself.

Even though Ping.fm was available in Tweetie 1.x, I didn't use it. I wanted to focus on using - and interacting - with Twitter in that interface. Ping.fm is about transmitting updates, not interacting.

I generally use Ping.fm via SMS (simple, quick, no data access needed) or email (for sending photo updates to multiple services).

I certainly don't want EVERY tweet going to ALL services I have connected (which, I believe, was how it was in 1.x). Without a per-message option (and that means a user interface in Tweetie), I don't see the value of adding Ping.fm.

A comment on the idea "Ping.fm integration in Tweetie 2 for iPhone" in atebits:

Services like Ping.fm (hellotxt is another) do one important thing: allow users to choose what services they want to update. Each service has its own gateway. New services and abilities are added by Ping.fm - and the apps that use it get the benefits. It's a really deep service. – wazungu, on October 13, 2009 00:16

wazungu replied on September 25, 2009 22:28 to the idea "Hootsuite iPhone app" in HootSuite:

I was looking in the App Store for an SMS scheduling app (SMS > Ping.fm > Social networks). Nothing decent at all.

No idea how involved it is (kind of a hybrid that would need an input field, the calendar interface, and a list of scheduled tweets), but BOY is that a need waiting to be filled.

If you are indeed working on it, my suggestion is to keep it simple (focus on scheduling, what the Hootlet does now as your guide) and don't try to be TweetDeck for iPhone (yet!).

What does Conduit's browser mod do that a Javascript bookmarklet won't? I'm not too keen on modding my browser, esp. if it's Safari (relying on an InputManager, most likely).

Jeff,

This exceeds my expectations for addressing the feedback you got on this topic. Thanks for going above and beyond (while working on HS 2.0 BTW). Impressive!

A comment on the problem "I hate ow.ly" in HootSuite:

At least, the owl.ly redirection service. I don't see any reason to stop using Hootsuite entirely, at least not yet. – wazungu, on April 28, 2009 19:55

I'm wondering if it's planned to have some sort of private or group sharing, as opposed to "share with world" feature currently available. I'd really love to get this system going in my office here, but can't just share all notes with the world.
