 "Twitter v3.1 comes to BlackBerry App World")
News has it that the Twitter v3.1 application (official version number 3.1.0.20) has now officially arrived to BlackBerry App World.

Other additions include an updated Twitter branding, as also an improved sign-up screen. The latest version of Twitter can used by those with BlackBerry Device Software 5.0 or later, while Twitter 2.0 is available for BlackBerry Device Software 4.6 or later. Twitter v1.1 is available for BlackBerry Device Software 4.5. The latest update promises users a richer experience of tweeting. It also supports right-to-left languages such as Arabic and Hebrew. Further, if users expand a tweet to view details, they can see images from pic.twitter.com in full resolution and RIM maps for geolocated tweets.
Updated Twitter app for BlackBerry
The Twitter app for Android and iOS devices had been only recently updated to version 3.3 and 4.3 respectively. One of the biggest additions to the app is the content preview feature. Tweets with links expanded give the reader a better glimpse at the content, similar to the Twitter previews for images. The app now shows snippets from Etsy, Kickstarter, Vimeo, and others. Notifications have also been improved. Users now have the option to get a notification whenever a certain twitter user tweets. The search and autocomplete functions have been improved and the iOS version of the app now has a better layout to track hashtags.
