Some of the screen shots for V1.1:

The user home screen has a new look.

One of the big things in this version is the new message page .  It has a few cool features here:
- Photo Preview
- Translate any message to English
- Email tweets
- favorite it
- Reply it publicly or privately

The message list also has a new look.

New feature in the place :  Unread Filter

You can use the Unread filter to just read the unread messages.


When there is a new push notification, you will get a alert like this. 
Just one tap on "View", you will read the content, much easier to use,
isn't it ?  This works both the app is running or not.



We also improved the message composer. Now you can choose to create a
new public message , or a direct message.  You can change which account
do you want to use. You can also change the direct message receiver at
anytime.

We also add the URL shortening feature here .


You can shake your iPhone/iPod touch anywhere in the app, you will get
a button like this.  Tap on it , it will lock your current screen
rotation.  It is a particularly useful feature if you use iPhone on bed
a lot.


As some of our users requested in V1.0, here in V1.1 we have a full user profile. You can Block/Unblock any users. And in this screen you can also add/remove this person to/from a group .




When you want to read a link, there is two modes : archive it and read later, or read it now. We found read later is particularly useful because it is a time saver.  It works for offline reading too.

In the new version, we improved the image viewer , it is faster, and more stable .
