No but we are adding a widget to a $.99c donation version. (everyone in the team, 4 of us, are under 20 right now).

Don’t expect big things like a widget to come while we’re still in alpha.

Does it? Hmm, didn’t when I tried it. Fair enough, we’ll match Plume and Tweetcaster then!

We’re adding features pretty much daily – we only have 1 coder at the moment. Features are coming as fast as we can make them

will be abusing this app, i am not a huge twitter-er but the UI alone is making me switch forever, reading the comments hearing people negativity need to understand it is in ALPHA not even BETA so I am responding to it for being an ALPHA and so far everything is good!

I have, actually: I use Chrome Canary & Firefox Nightly as my daily browsers. But that’s because they don’t lack features present in stable builds. OTOH, Boid lacks a few of Twitter’s features.

Don’t get me wrong, I’m not discounting your project, my original comment was more of a response to Kellex’s deriding of the official client.

The question is, does it have a widget, and is that widget any better looking than the official Twitter app?

Doesn’t have support yet – it’ll be in the next update.

Ever since I went to 4.0.3 I’ve used Plume. The scrollable widget alone is worth the switch. Fantastic Twitter app.
