If Witter isn't working for you, eg crashes/doesn't start, gives errors etc etc. Please run it from x-term using:
run-standalone.sh python2.5 /opt/witter/witter.py
This will generate diagnostic output. Without this I cannot help you.

Now you mentioned that there will be auto-refresh in the next release, will there also be notifications to show how many new tweets/replies/DMs have been received?
). And yes, there we'll be the maemo's yellow banner showing how many tweet/mentions the app downloaded.Don't really decided the time to auto-update, I was thinking something around 90s.

I guess TweeGo has the same problem that witter had, which is that handling the timestamps isn't nearly as straight forward as you'd hope. Not least because twitter returns at least 2 different formats for the timestamp depending on whether you are searching or not.
I guess in C it may be better than python, I had real trouble with the python library not supporting the timestamp notation completely so I had to play around a load to get timestamps 'right'
TweeGo guys, not sure how helpful it would be to you, but feel free to take a look at the witter source, timestamp handling is done in the account.py class in the method parse_time
Now it's more like the twitter.com, with the "less than 20 seconds ago", "about xx hours", etc.
Thanks Daniel, I didn't really know that witter was an open source application, I'll take a look in your code for sure!

Got one more. Auto-login. I'm starting to wish we didn't have to log in every time we launch the app

Probably the next loader will be less restrictive.
I second that. I <3 This application, but as I live in GMT-5 it kind of stinks that its all GMT+0, and although an auto-login would be nice, I would prefer a different handling of tweets.
Right now it downloads all the avatars and tweets at once (which is fine for wifi and 3g), but if I was on a 2.5g connection or slower, then would it be possible to show the tweets then download the avatars afterwards, so I can read the content as I care more about the content and less about their profile pics.
Anyways, awesome app. I use it every day!
Thanks for you comments guys and, again, sorry about the delay between the version, we're trying to release the most bug free app as possible.

Well I've downloaded it, but I can't log in. It just keeps saying "Wrong username/email and password combination".
Help, please?
