From This Day

Don’t know what to write here, let’s be brief and concrete this time. qTwitter 0.10.0 is out. It brings some new handy functionalities, like:

• mentions timeline (no shit! should be there half a year ago :P) that is merged together with the friends timeline,
• automatic tagging thingy – it converts your selected words into #hashtags and it’s smart enough not to touch URLs and StatusNet !groups,
• improved URL shortening – now shortening all the urls in a status at one go, plus comes with a customizable shortcut,
• notifications fixed to notify about new statuses AND NOT unread ones,
• fixes in parsing URLs in statuses (kudos to Stephan Beyer).

Plus some code clean-ups, build system fixes, and so on. I provided some initial plugin interface, but I don’t really want to talk about it in public yet, as it’s immature, not ready and you won’t do too much with it at the moment ;) but it allowed me to write two extensions already, and they seem to be working fine so far.

So, qTwitter is here. Precisely, here. Happy twitting!

BTW. qTwitter 0.9.2 and QOAuth 1.0 stable in Gentoo Portage since a while ago :)
