Greetings all

Maybe I'm being doff but I can't seem to find the Twitter app on the MarketPlace? Googled it and found this http://twitter.com/#!/download/wp7. Even mailed the link to my phone but it no work! Is it perhaps not available in SA or what am I missing?
I've added my Twitter account to my settings on the phone, even gave Micorsoft permission to link it to my Live ID bla-bla-bla... and now what? Where is my Twitter feed? WP7 has my account but no feed? No app? What the heck?!

Help...? Please? :confused:
 
Twitter is now "built in" to the WP7 OS, it needs to be linked to your Windows Live Account though.

When you've done that its under the "Me" tile

Missed that part, is your feed set to show messages from Twitter or Just Facebook/ Windows Live

I couldnt find it either. I prefer the app. Easy to switch accounts etc. Twitter was installed on my phone when I bought it a year ago.
 
Ok, after Googling a bit found it in the "Me" profile but it sucks. Only shows tweets specifically at me. I don't see al the tweets from all of the people I follow... or am still doing something wrong...

Yes, the standalone app was better...

No, no, no.
Think about it...The "me" tile is about "me" (well, you in this case). So ofcourse it only has you.
The entire feed will be listed in the "People" hub. Which makes sense ;)

Ok cool! Makes sense. Shot for that. I have a whole lot more Facebook contacts than Twitter so the Tweets in my People's "what's new" feed is drowned out by the FB stuff. I'll switch the FB feed off a bit and see how that goes.

Cheers!

No prob :)
Remember that you can tap the "what's new" at the top to choose what you want to see - unless this is what you meant.
 
You can also try Seesmic as a Twitter client if you want.
