New Tweetdeck for iPhone Brings Geotagging and Maps

In: web resources

9 Jan 2010

The Tweetdeck dev team has been busy over the holidays, bringing us version 1.3 of the iPhone application. It consists mostly of minor improvements, but there’s one cool feature: geotagging and inline maps in the tweet detail screen.

Of course, to have your tweets tagged with your current location, you must enable geo-tagging in the settings; iPhone’s GPS will do the rest. The coolest new feature is definitely “View on map”, which lets you see all the geotagged tweets from a certain column on a Google Map, and zoom in on them to get more info.

Other features include being able to choose which style of retweet you prefer (i.e. the old one vs. the official one), and adding lists as columns.

For an overview of all the new features in Tweetdeck for iPhone v1.3, check out the video below.

Selective desaturation is done in post processing, and as far as I know can not be done on any camera.
That said, it is a far overused technique (that everyone, including me, is guilty of), so I wouldn't worry too much about finding a camera that can do it specifically.

If you were still interested in doing it, Adobe Lightroom breaks the color into 8 or 9 different channels, and you can adjust hue saturation and lightness of the channels independently, meaning that you can turn off saturation for all channels except for green, for example. This would make anything not green monotone.

sorry, but there is no software to take a snapshot from google earth, but you can do so by other way.

1) you can [b] print screen the page by pressing the print screen button of your keyboard [/b],

2) then paste it in mspaint and cut out the map and paste in other paint.

3)then slide the map in google earth and again repeate the 1st step.

4) after that paste that map in other paint i which you had pasted earlier after cutting.

5) and slide that to join both maps to a single in paint.

by this way you can create a whole map.

ya, it will take some time but by this way you can get your whole map clear.

People have been saying the same thing for thousands of years, yet humanity keeps making new discoveries. Their lack of creativity in imagining the future does not set a limit on scientific achievement.

Did you try uninstalling the Trial software, because that should actually also restore your original webcam source.

You could run it through an HTML validator such as that at

Tip: It is not recommended to use table-based layouts. Tables should only be used for displaying tabular data. It is highly recommended to use <div> tags, with absolute positions.
