At long last, the official Twitter app is now available for the iPad. Although available for the iPhone for some time now, Twitter has just updated their app to version 3.1 and includes compatibility and features that take advantage of the iPad platform. Twitter for the iPad offers up the following additional features:
- Brings your Tweets together with web pages, photos, videos and more.
- Tap on any Tweet and a related content pane will open, displaying any linked content from the Tweet, including web pages, profile information, hashtag searches and similar users.
- Slide panels from side to side and quickly navigate through related content.
- Quickly peek into a Tweet by pinching on a Tweet to unfold related information and actions, and use two fingers to drag on a Tweet to reveal replies.
It’s very nice to see Twitter offer up some features that utilize the bigger screen and capabilities of the iPad. It’s a FREE download, so get the app and try it out for yourself. Post a Comment if you have something to say about Twitter’s new iPad version.

Why is it when my iPad is left at home, there is always something I need to install?
I’ll do this when I get home. But, I’m wondering, is there PUSH added to this one? I bet not. Then again, does one really need PUSH for Twitter and Facebook? Curious…
I’ve downloaded it to my iPad and I’m liking the interface. It doesn’t appear to have push — oh well. I’m not so sure I want push anyway. I don’t like having interruptions and it’s easy to just check Twitter and see what’s new.
Ivan, hurry home and get Twitter on that iPad of yours!
I have Twitter installed, and am playing with it a little. I’m not 100% sold on it yet. I think I’m still a lover of Osfoora HD for iPad…
We’ll see how it goes over the next few days…
