Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: PC / Laptop, Software,

Twitter has updated the official Twitter for Mac app for the first time since June 2011, surprising many Mac users in the process, many of whom thought the app was essentially dead. Instead, along with the listed new features and improvements, Twitter's Ben Sandofsky has also announced that the will be working on Twitter for Mac full-time, and that there are more cool updates to come.

P.S. I'm taking a break from iOS to work on Twitter for Mac full time.
