Bryan Chaffin Atebits announced the release of Tweetie 2 for iPhone Friday, a release that adds a digital ton of new features to the iPhone Twitter client. The company said it has a new engine, allows for previewing short URLs, and is built to make room for upcoming new features for the Twitter platform.
Other key new features include the ability to edit your profile in-app, the ability to write multiple tweets when you're not online (they get sent all at once when you connect), support for Safari bookmarklets, the ability to link Twitter addresses to Apple Address Book contacts, and more.
All of the Features:
- Seamlessly handle multiple Twitter accounts
- Explore all of Twitter, from your own timeline and mentions, to the favorite tweets of your followers and friends
- Full persistence: more than just caching tweets, Tweetie 2 restores your entire UI if you quit or get a phone call

- Post photos and videos, even configure your own custom image host

When, if ever, will the author get around to documenting the features of Tweetie 2?
I was always finding new features or shortcuts in the original and the new app is even more packed. Having paid for the new version I’d love to be able to really use it to the max.
