Regardless, dwould, if there is anything I can do to help, just let me know.
The only other thing I would personally prefer is 'icons' for "Tweet' and 'Refresh' instead of big icons with text in them.
Nice.

Hello everybody,
i have a N900 since yesterday... and was very amused to read about the witter-aplication...
i have installed it as it was written, but it don't start.. it opens but nothing happens... i waited for almost 15 minutes but i could only read witter in the status bar...
has anybody the same problem or a solution for that?
Have i to install any phyton-packages first?
Sorry if the question is stupid, but i am a real newbi...

Installed it to my N810 and here are some areas of improvement (sorry if they have been mentioned);
1) I'd love to see the avatars and not just the twitter names
2) Some texts in the timeline goes past the right edge of the screen and does not seem to wrap correctly
3) Nothing happens when selecting direct messages, mentions or search.
4) Could you add a 'retweet' option that takes advantage of the now built-in retweeting function?
5) I'd love kinetic scrolling on the N810 platform as well
6) I would much prefer that instead of a full date and time stamp in the tweets that it would say 'Posted 4 mins ago', etc.
7) Auto-refresh of the timeline would be great
8) A better looking UI
9) When on the Friends/Contacts list it would be nice to be able to click the name of a contact and then see all his/hers tweets
Like the contact management options a lot!

I also have not the slightest clue how I would put the remaining character count inside the test entry field.
My personal though on avatars is they provide nothing I want to see at the cost of screen space. I can't recognise most people from their avatar pictures anyhow.
unfortunately this week is likely to see little progress because I had a day job, and it rather gets in the way ;-)
my plan for now is to figure out the garage project stuff to get the code in SCM, and sort out diablo versus fremantle. As there is a good chance diablo will get left behind in the enthusiasm for the nice new n900
With that sorted I might stand a chance of keeping track of various enhancement requests!

This will generate diagnostic output. Without this I cannot help you.

I don't know if you've seen this already, but it might make it easier to implement some of these requested features

I modified one of your earlier builds from your blog post and it works pretty good

2,3,4)I'm afraid the 810 verison is currently quite far behind
nothing will happen when you select any of the views until you hit 'refresh'
retweet is being developed and if I figure out a sensible way to manage two slightly different code streams, then it will go to the n810 too
5)kinetic scrolling on the 810 is a question of me figuring out library that provides it
6)the problem with time stamps that show you how long ago, is that you have to have a constantly updating process to keep them up to date. that means battery drain vs inaccuarcy. fixed time stamp is just right.
7) same thing with 6. but very commonly requested. so I'll probably work on it, but it means me learning how to do threads etc.
8) everyones a critic....;-)
9) yeah, I guess that would be nice...perhaps one of the core things to get working before I worry about multiple accounts etc

I guess we're all different - for me avatars help a lot as i subscribe to a lot of news/site updates that oftgen post 4-5 tweets in a row. Having the avatars is a great way for me to quickly see what sort of posts I have.

Does your n900 camera produce hazy "bluish" images?
