Twitterberry: I’m running the Beta version of TwitterBerry. When I load my Friends Timeline, it shows me the tweets from the last time I loaded my Friends View. I manually have to tell it to refresh. Then, when it does refresh, I loads the new tweets above the ones I currently see. This is as it should be, but then I have to manually scroll up to get to the newest tweet.
Gmail: The Gmail client behaves somewhat similarly – it shows me the emails I had the last time I refreshed them in the client. I have to manually tell it to refresh.
Facebook: The Facebook app doesn’t show me every post from my friends, nor does it show me every comment I receive. Loading the mobile site doesn’t help, either. The only way I can respond to a comment is via the full (meaning non-mobile) Facebook website. This is downright annoying. Also, choosing Close from the menu should close the app and not just take me back a screen. That’s what the Back button is for.
Typepad: How can a huge and popular blogging service like Typepad NOT be mobile browser friendly? I was reading Seth Godin’s website on my Blackberry earlier. It looked like hell because I had to scroll past Seth’s huge (on a Blackberry screen) sidebar. Come on, Typepad. Get with the program.
Amazon: The Amazon.com app for the Blackberry is pretty darn good, but I do wish it had the “Customers Who Bought This Item Also Bought” feature. That would make the app rock.
