Twessenger 2.0 is ready to go…

@ June 16, 2008

Twessenger 2.0 is here!

Twessenger

So what’s new?

  • More reliable: Completely re-written from scratch to use the latest Twitter API.
  • Easier to set up: Just install, enable the plugin, and enter your Twitter username. You no longer need to search for your numeric Twitter ID.
  • New options: You can now change the update interval, and choose to ignore all Twitter replies – i.e. messages beginning with @
  • Automatic update notifications: Twessenger 2.0 will automatically notify you when new versions are available!

    Works like a charm, thanks for responding to the requests for an update. Awesome work!

  2. # Ted:

    Good work, thanks! In future versions we want bi-directional updates, avatar synchronization, … :)

  3. # Kittyburgers:

    Just installed today. Seems to work as advertised! ;-) Good work.
    Would love the option of also being able to use as a full twitter client!

    Hey,

    This seems like a great app! But I can’t get it to work. The options in my add-on menu are greyed out and there’s a security message at the bottom stating that not all add-ons are from trustworthy sources. (The message is in Dutch so posting the whole thing wouldn’t make sense to you.)

    Any idea what could be the problem?
    Thanks!

    Installed and apparently it’s connecting as I can see my last post just under my name in the spot.. TwitterIM shows as offline altough I have the chcek box to turn it on.. Would love to get it working.. TIA

    was using it, and finding it great until I upgraded to Live messenger 9 Beta. Can’t seem to make it work. I can’t find a way to activate addins in Live messenger 9. Have u looked at Messenger 9 Beta already ?

  8. # Ove K:

    Would love if it was able to use with “non-public Twitter” updates (what if we provide username and password?)

  9. # Pierre:

    Does it need the twitter feed to be public ?

  10. # Seba:

    How can I get it to work with the beta version of the upcoming Windows Live Messenger 2009?

    Regards

    I dont know how to access the twessenger app now Ive installed it :(

  14. # Kunal:

    @jaz, the latest version of Messenger dropped support for add-ins, so there's no way to use Twessenger with it, unfortunately. Please see this post for more info: http://kunal.kundaje.net/2008/10/twessenger-sta...
