I've been an active member of the PreCentral (webOS) community for 2 years, both as a user and a developer. For those of you who are or used to be webOS users, you may be familiar with some of my apps: Music Player (Remix), GeoStrings, and Quick Post.
I've begun porting Quick Post to Android and iOS (using the Appcelerator Titanium development toolkit) and thought I'd introduce the Android community to the app. It allows you to post quickly to multiple Twitter and Facebook accounts simultaneously. It's goal is to allow the user to focus on the content of the message, not the logistics of posting (counting characters, retweeting msgs to multiple accounts, or even whether there is an active internet connection).
Here are some of the many features found in the app (all of which will be ported to Android):
- Send messages or photos to multiple Twitter and Facebook accounts simultaneously. Photos can be uploaded to twitpic or yfrog for Twitter accounts. And for Facebook accounts, photos are uploaded directly to a Facebook album.
- Configure multiple "default" destination accounts where messages will be sent. Or choose the destination accounts on a per message basis.
- When no internet connection is present, messages are queued up. Once your internet connection is restored, the messages are automatically sent.
- Advanced configurable message compression techniques are used to ensure messages fit within the maximum character limit. Each compression technique is applied in series so the message is only compressed enough to fit within the character limit.
- Messages that fail to compress enough will be automatically split into muliple pieces with X/Y message counters. Twitter mentions will be automatically cc'd to each message piece.
- Incomplete messages are automatically saved as a draft. When you re-open the app, you can restore the draft including the previously selected destination accounts.
- Optionally assign your own titles to your accounts. By default your screen name is used as the title.
If you have any questions about the app or have any suggestions, please feel free to post them. You can also hit me up on Twitter (@Hedami).
