Twitter News Aggregator
I've been trying different Twitter client apps on my iPhone, and as of now using TwitPal. This is very nice application, it incorporates alot of user data that is handy to see. The only issues I have ran into are non-handling of ampersand's they come through as the &'s, and for some reason this buggy thing happens where you will get text that shows above the timeline in a fixed manner saying the content cannot be viewed because it has been marked private. This is very annoying, and I end up using the Echofon application for awhile, then when I come back it works again. The one thing I would like to either create in my own Twitter client app or see a developer produce has to do with articles and being able to view them at a later date. I find myself not being able to manage my twitter timeline throughout my day, but I find a ton of newsworthy articles or posts that I would like to view later. I know your thinking favorite, but the problem with that is the article is not my "favorite" it's just something I'd like to view. But if I am 5 hours behind there are 100's of posts and links that I do not have enough time to view. I was thinking of adding a "save" link, and then in a different page or even another client platform (a news aggregate reader) be able to read this material in my own time.
How do you handle this issue with your Twitter timelines.. or is their just a premium client that has this type of functionality?
