One of the reasons why the Mac version of Twitterrific still hasn’t been updated is due to the limited number of user tokens available to us on the Mac platform, a policy I sincerely hope Twitter re-examines one day. When I think of all the hard work, hand-wringing and ultimately, satisfied customers, Twitterrific has gone through over the years it really boggles my mind. Knowing that so many people use and love something you’ve created day after day is a wonderful feeling. You keep downloading and sending us positive feedback, and that motivates us to refine and improve the app. Twitterrific would never have flown as far and wide as it has if it wasn’t for all of our loyal customers, and for that we are truly thankful. If you’ve not tried Twitterrific in a while, I invite you to check it out.

* There was at least one other 3rd party Twitter app in the store at launch – Twinkle.With the rising popularity of Twitter, it seems that everyone is tweeting nowadays. You can stay in touch with friends, follow the every move of celebrities, get the latest deals from companies, or stay updated with the latest news. And while some folks like using the web interface, other want a more personalized Twitter experience. One of the most popular Twitter clients is named Twitterrific. From the Greensboro, NC based Iconfactory, Twitterrific is a favorite of Mac, iPhone and iPod Touch users. He's so popular that some folks mistake Ollie for the official Twitter mascot.Īnd you've probably seen the mascot - Ollie - who was designed by artist David Lanham (Zog, Bill the Yeti). Material: Rotocast vinyl (flocked variant)Įdition Size: Limited Run - regular 350 pieces - flocked Manufacturer: Strangekiss and Iconfactory But, I'm sure you probably heard about that on Twitter, right? Well, Iconfactory, David Lanham and Strangekiss have teamed up to turn Ollie the Twitterrific Bird into a rotocast vinyl figure. Ollie comes packaged in a plastic window-front box between two snap plastic trays. The top and sides of the box feature illustrations of the Ollie character, while the back has a little information about the character and the Twitterrific client.Īfter attempting to write this review using only 140 characters, I decided that I might need a little more space. (That's a joke.you only get 140 characters per ) Out of the numerous Twitter clients out there, Twitterrific is one of the most recognizable. While it's only available for use on the Mac and iPhone, their version of the Twitter bird is often thought to be the official Twitter mascot. It's probably because Iconfactory's is the best looking take on the bird. If the window is cold, the person sitting by the window might turn up the heat in the whole apartment.Many folks probably didn't know that David Lanham, who teamed up with Strangekiss to release the Zog and Bill the Yeti vinyl figures, is the artist behind Ollie the Twitterrific Bird (he's a part of the Iconfactory team). Consider a person sitting by the window to read, do a crossword, or sew. This might slightly increase your heating demand, but this is an ingenious feature which shows the designers of your building really thought about making the apartments comfortable for the occupants.Īnd it could even decrease your heating demand as follows. So even on a very cold day it should be comfortable to sit next to the window and not be chilled. Having lower humidity interior air flow through the space between the panes both keeps the window clear from fogging and heats the window. This would prevent fogging between the two panes. If the ventilation port is a route into the space between the two panes of the double pane window, then the purpose would be to dry out the space between the two panes. The fresh air prevented the formation of carbon monoxide. In the past it was important to have a route for outside fresh air to get into the living space because natural gas space heaters drew their combustion air from the living space and the combustion gasses were vented into the living space. Is the ventilation port going to a covered port on the outside wall? If so, the purpose would be to allow ventilation that rain could not get through.
