i agree - so far so good. nice release Apple.
- Morgan
agreed - everything seems a bit snappier, although have still had the occasional lock-ups while running apps - takes about 2 mins to start from powered-off with 72 apps installed

All the Twitter Apps that I've tried on my iPod Touch would crash on me. :(
- Daynah
used to like twitterific then it started flaking out. then i went to mobile web version of twitter. now trying hahlo. me likee. thanks for the post!
- Kevin Doohan
I love hahlo! I have mentioned in the past how I like Twinkle of all twitter apps, but I have noticed myself using direct message more to my gf and other friends since it's pretty much like free SMS, and twinkle doesn't support that. Not to mention, I live in a not so techie city, so using the nearby feature is pointless. I go with hahlo and twitterific for now.
- Dennis Jackson
Twinkle is best. I feel I have 2 lists to check now. The people I follow, and the people around me.
- PC Easy
I use Twitterific, I like the little bird sounds :)
- Oli Kenobi
Twinkle has created conversations with new people simply because it has the local part of the app. I have seen people on all night using it like instant messenger.
- Adam Helweh
If I lived in San fran I would agree Adam, but where I live you will have maybe two or three people in the area, and the tweets are not interesting at all!
- Dennis Jackson
@dennis, Yeah I live in the SF bay area. ons of activity. I did not think of that.
- Adam Helweh
I read in the article that Twittetific doesn't use GPS to locate you. Then how does it locate you? I'm sure I saw that feature while posting with it.
- Dennis Jackson
trying Twitterific but find it craps out, so switching back and forth with reliable hahlo

I am always surprised to relearn AOL still exists, honestly.

This is incredible. When was the last time AOL didn't destroy everything it touched?
- Dan Kaplan
Pandora is great, too. It's the death knell for broadcast radio.
- Leo Laporte
Is it too much to pray that Sirius/XM puts up an iPhone app, even if it's just for subscribers? Would LOVE that.
- Omar Gallaga
@Omar. The pay radio business model is broken, streaming is certainly one of the options to be considered in reinventing their business.
- Dave Martin
I would have never tried this if you didn't mention it. I'm loving it already! Just listened to KCRW's Left Right & Center this morning (which is still better in podcast format though).
- Jeff Schneiter
AOL Radio has kicked ass for a good year now, even as it transitioned away from XM stations and picked up CBS stations. I've been telling friends, and always have to say "Yeah, I know it's AOL. Trust me. This is a good project." I'm glad it's finally getting its due.
- Jason Bentley
Sirius streams now, it would just be a matter of doing something like the Sirius Yahoo Widget for iPhone.
- Omar Gallaga
@Omar. And, by design, making it pay.

Not sure about AOL, but I just went driving and used Pandora over Edge on my 1st Gen iPhone. Short delay to start, but worked fine thereafter.
- Omar Gallaga
The AOL app works quite nicely on both wi-fi and 2G/Edge. I did note that the CNN Radio feed appears to either not be on the air or was dead for some reason. No programming at 1900 PT. Otherwise, it really rocks. Excellent audio and a very nice selection of the normal AOL stations as well as CBS Radio O&Os. Cool.
- Dave Rutter
Ed Dale just talked about this, minutes ago, on the #30DC broadcast on Ustream
- Chris Johnston
from twhirl
...and, yes, I know that CBS really doesn't own these stations any more.
- Dave Rutter
Omar, I would also love to see a Sirius streaming app for the iPhone
- Mike Doeff
Last.fm / Pandora plus this... gonna seriously dent iTunes sales, I bet.
- l0ckergn0me
@l0ckergn0me But how quickly will streaming Last.fm/Pandora drain your battery compared to locally stored downloaded media?
- Jim McCusker
I'm going to start liking AOL just because its been so "uncool" to like AOL for such a long time.
- Robert
Awesome, found an affiliate on the list that tunes into Coast 2 Coast :) Great having AM radio back.
- Rodfather
Leo, off hand do you know if any of the stations on the AOL app carry your Sat & Sun shows?
- Carroll
"I could only get the iTunes app to work by logging into the web site with my Touch first. Only then would the app take my log-in info. If I log off I have to go back to the site to log in again. Anyone else have this problem?"
- Carroll
Mutch fun this was! I took a nap for you Leo :-)
- Matt
I had the longest nap after this was over. Good times.
- Dennis Jackson
Great fun watching on Thursday night. Woz's section was superb and so was ton of it - kept me up way too late watching, when I should've been sleeping / prepping for horrendous lines / waiting yesterday :)
- Patrick Jordan
Great job, I heard I was on the stream from a guy with a macbook videocasting from Third Street Promenade, I high fived the isight Camera and yelled TWiTLive

Leo if you don't mind me asking how many hours a week do you work with all your projects? I swear your everywhere I turn on the interwebs. Thanks for all good stuff you produce.

After swimming around in the pool, I usually work up an appetite. So I say pool then pig out.
- Matthew Horton
forget dinner. straight to pool, drink until brunch
- Carroll
haha - Pool or Dinner first - OK Twitter first :)
- lindsayadams
I checked - Solage Resort in Napa Valley is pet-friendly - cool
- Harry Myhre
Pool first, then dinner. A nice audible book after that. Web of Evil by J.A. Jance is a good read, integrates the web and blogging into the story. on a side not which is your primary posting service this is the third place I posted this. I don't mind as much as would like to only write it once and send to many!

The pool up there is so uniquely wonderful. Enjoy yourself.
