Anyone know of or use a decent twitter app?
Already tried CETwit & Twit Today but neither seem slick or user friendly!
Any ideas guys?
Try Pocketwit. Works very well http://code.google.com/p/pocketwit/

Does anyone know if there is a decent Facebook app out there? So far I've tried the default one that came with the EVO, Bloo and Facebook Touch and they just don't do it for me. Is there a Facebook app that is as good as say, TweetCaster or Touiteur with a decent widget?
Cheers...
Not one that I've seen, unfortunately.
You're better off sticking to the browser. Facebook on Android blows.

I know. If there was just one that was as good as TweetCaster... that would be tiiite.
I am fairly disappointed by how many options there are for Facebook, and how poor they really are. I find myself using the full website more often than not.
I still open the official FB application first, just to get a quick look, and if I'm still bored, I'll open up the site. The friendstream stuff, and the feed updates on contacts are pretty worthless, IMO. By default, there are like 3 different services pulling FB feeds, and there should only be one. I liked the way my Palm Pre worked, where everything was integrated into the OS--even FB chat.
Just use the browser. Another option is "FULL SITE", which gives you the desktop version of facebook.
Too bad they can't get the developer who created the facebook for iPhone app.
I know there have been a few threads on video chat and I apologize for making a new one; however I thought my post may get lost if I tried to post in older threads. Below are the APKs for both yahoo messenger and the video add on. I've tested this on my 101 and it works well. I did find out that if you have not updated to the latest firmware it does not work well. Enjoy!

Video Add On

If I find that an update is needed I will add the links as needed.
Does not work for me. Neither these files nor the files from the market. Video /Audio addon crashes always on the A 70.
Are u on the new firmware?
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA App
2.0.71 of course. Driver seemed to suck all CPU power...
Seems to work just fine, but is one heavy app. Between the chat and the plugin it is over 20mbs of space. Not sure how it affects battery life...
You can also download these from the market if you have it installed. I tested this today and it is the best so far. Fring and Tango still have a lot of bugs. The new Skype with Video is going to be Verizon only.. at least for this year. There is one more that just came out that might be better than Yahoo and that is ooVoo. It is in beta, but you can download it now from the market. I haven't tested it yet, but it sounds promising.
So if you have Archos.. best video chat so far I think is Yahoo and ooVoo.
Hi, I bought my iconia yesterday and since then I can't sign in to Twitter, I've tried the app that comes with the tablet, official Twitter app, Tweetcomb and 1 or 2 other Twitter services for Android, but none of them seem to work. What do you guys think is the problem? I'm really new into Android 3.0 so I could be missing something, I hope you can help me out guys.

check the clock setting ( date & time shift) dunno why but it has to be correct for use twitter
Fixed, thanks a lot.

Seesmic is the best! And it integrates Twitter too!
I use Friend Me as well, but I installed FB 1.6 without issue.
Download the APK from this thread:

Email to your Gmail account. Open your Gmail app on your tab and you'll be presented with the option to install it from the App. No root necessary.
damn i was using friend caster and didnt really like the UI but i took bbeelzebub's advice and tried friend me and i prefer it much better than friend caster. thanks!
I was also using friendme and noticed that if you have friends that block 3rd party apps, you will not get thier status updates in your feed. This is not the case with the official FB (1.6) app
Hi,
After successfully updating to the official Gingerbread for the U8800 I removed some bundled apps including the News & weather app.
I actually liked this app and other News aggrigators just aren't the same. I thought I had backed up properly but it looks like I didn't.
If someone can kindly either share their app or show me where I can download it from I would appreciate it.
I've tried looking for it on the Market even trying a few they had on offer (Pulse & News-Australia). Pulse sucks up too much power and the others I have tried just aren't as good.
Thanks
