I want my twitter app

The past year has been heavy on iPhone and Twitter for me. Being the iPhone app addict i am i have been buying at least 1 app a week not including the free ones and the first and last thing i do every day is to check for updates. I have bought all the major twitter iPhone apps (Tweetdeck, Birdfeed, Echofon pro, IM+ push for twitter, Twitterrific, Twirxt, Tweetie, Twinkle) as well as downloading and installing some for my desktop (Echofon firefox add-on, Tweetdeck, Digsby), and while some of them have some of the features I want/need/crave none of them completes my list, not to mention to have them all together. So here is a list of the features i would like a software that has an iPhone app (selfishly, maybe better say mobile app), a desktop app, browser add-ons (preferably for firefox) all of them in sync, and i think they are technically possible, to have:

• consistent interface and functionality across platforms
  
• groups (tweet deck like)
• rss based syncing to overcome the 100 tweets twitter limit (I have that in google reader but it lacks the twitter app functionality)
• option to chronologically reverse the tweet display order
• last tweet read stamp, to remember where you left of
• easy retweet, mark as read (preferably by choice either when rolling over or by a button), favorite, reply
• search for user and ability to follow, unfollow and add to group
• shrink url
• upload image and add link
• upload video and add link
• add location link
• trends
• nearby tweets
• tweet shrink
  

I am not a programmer/developer but most of those features already exist in other apps and those that don't i think are doable. Having said that, I am more than willing to help with the rest of the process (wireframes, UI, logos etc.) if anyone is interested in developing all this, but in any case I would pay for an app like that and i am surprised there isn't one out there, taking the publicity twitter has gained.

best of '08: girl talk (music)

Gregg Gillis A.K.A Girl Talk, is an American musician born October 26, 1981. Girl Talk released the album Feed the Animals , a wired favorite, made up from more tan 300 samples which i find to be a masterpiece taken the fact that he composes music with samples instead of notes or sounds. It kept company for the better part of 2008 and looks like it's going to be there for 2009 as well. I think it's the best think i discovered in 2008.

Gillis also holds a big part in the upcoming, first open source as it claims, documentary "RiP: A remix manifesto", where web activist and filmmaker Brett Gaylor explores issues of copyright in the information age, mashing up the media landscape of the 20th century and shattering the wall between users and producers.

Gillis, who lives in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, has released four LPs on Illegal Art and EPs on 333 and 12 Apostles.

Once again kudos to group94 for another premium flash site (although i would like to know whether the noise the background produces, at least while playing the mini meteor game, is intended), well done boys...

google crawls Flash

Great news for flashers....

Google has been developing a new algorithm for indexing textual content in Flash files of all kinds, from Flash menus, buttons and banners, to self-contained Flash websites. Recently, we've improved the performance of this Flash indexing algorithm by integrating Adobe's Flash Player technology.

create your web pallete

this is wicked! I don't know how long has this been out there but it's really good. Create a color pallete in multiple ways and in an array of combinations and then use it for your web design project (or even export it for a variety of programs including photoshop an illustrator)
Nice!

new group 94 website

finally the long awaited group 94 website is here. No more tamara videos.
