TwitPic hits qTwitter
March 11th, 2009
I’m happy to present you fresh qTwitter 0.5.0. It now incorporates TwitPic API support, so you can instantly upload photos you want to share and post them to Twitter with JUST ONE CLICK! And it really works:
In addition, qTwitter now knows when you’re posting a reply, and adds in reply to <username> on Twitter page. Some fixes were also applied — one of them submitted by Bryce Verdier (bryceverdier AT gmail — thanks for your help!). You’ll find details in changelog.
Get qTwitter 0.5.0 now from qt-apps.org, or if you want to take a look at the code, get it from GitHub. Happy twitting :)

Can’t download it from github. Every time I hit that freaking download button it says “page does not exist”! This is true for both tar and zip versions. Tried to download from qt-apps, but it just links to git-hub. Damn!

Hey, sorry for this but github is barely working last days. I moved the packages to my own server, so the links from qt-apps.org are working now. Give it a try now :)

So far, my absolute favourite Twitter client for Linux!
I’m no programmer, unfortunately, but is there somewhere to make suggestions for new features? Built-in support for http://is.gd/ URL-shortening would be great.

Thanks for the feedback! :)
There’s a lighthouseapp site for qTwitter at http://ayoy.lighthouseapp.com/projects/27230-qtwitter where you can submit feature requests. But! The support for is.gd is already added and will come up with the next release, which is planned in 2 weeks time. So please be patient and you’ll get this with qTwitter 0.6.0 together with some other new stuff like multiple accounts support – you’ll find the details at qTwitter’s Lighthouse site.
