Handmark, the masterminds behind Pocket Express, have outed a new Twitter app called Tweetcaster. How much will it cost you? A tweet, something which every app developer could use. Asking for a tweet is an especially good idea for indie developers who couldn’t get away with charging for their app, and need some way of getting publicity. Most of the features are pretty vanilla (check your @replies, direct messages, friends timeline, etc.) but it does have a cool proximity detection feature that lets you see tweets made from within a certain radius of your GPS position. I might give it a shot, though my heart stays with Yatca. If you’re looking to try something new, hit up Tweetcaster for your download link, or hit up their demo video for a closer look.
