Tweetbot is arguably the best Twitter experience you can get on an iPhone, iPod touch, or iPad, and now the folks at Tapbots have released Tweetbot for Mac. It's a clean, polished Twitter experience that outshines both official offerings from Twitter itself--Twitter for Mac and Tweetbot. iCloud and Notification Center support are on board, allowing you to sync preferences and read items across devices. You can pick up Tweetbot for Mac now for $19.99 in the Mac App Store. Why so much? Well, due to Twitter's new, strict API rules, developers like Tapbots only have a limited number of user tokens that its apps can use. So if you wanna use Tweetbot, you're gonna have to grab it soon, because once the API tokens are gone, they're gone.

Bette Midler is to star in Glee. The "Wind Beneath My Wings" singer has agreed to film a cameo for the musical TV drama after being asked to by the show's co-creator Ryan Murphy.
Ryan asked Bette while she was on stage for the God's Love We Deliver Golden Hearts Awards event in New York City. "And from the stage, @ryanmurphy invited me to guest on @Glee! I should get out more," she wrote on Twitter.
Ryan couldn't contain his excitement and also took to Twitter to speak of his joy: "Bette said yes! Amazing. I am plotting...who should she play?"
But it seems, Bette, 66, already has some ideas and thinks she could be the grandmother of Rachel Berry, who is played by Lea Michele. "I have one vote for Rachel's grandmother," she tweeted.

Kristen Stewart is worried her stardom might lead to someone killing her one day.
The Twilight actress fears someone will log on to a social networking site to find out her location, then travel to where she is and murder her. In an extract from new e-book Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart, Taylor Lautner -- In Their Own Words by Talia Soghomonian, she told interviewer Sian Edwards, "Nowadays it's harder because everyone is on Facebook and everyone knows where you are all the time, and everyone's Twittering. Like I'm going to die because somebody is going to say where I am and somebody is going to kill me. Someone's going to Twitter my location and then it's going to be like, boom."
While the 22-year-old star fears sites such as Facebook and Twitter can be harmful in terms of her safety, she admits the communication possibilities on the webpages are "really great." She added, "I actually think too much of anything can be scary, but at the same time it's also an opportunity. I mean mass communication is a good thing. It's actually a really great thing, it's just scary."

Posted by Robin Paulson Categories: Movies, Music, Child Stars, Photos,
Liam Hemsworth has officially completed his rite of passage among young celebrities in love: acquiring a matching tattoo with his significant other.
The Australian actor - who is engaged to Miley Cyrus - debuted his ink via Twitter, which revealed that the quote he permanently scribed on his arm was a continuation of his fiancee's. Both tattoos were taken from a 1910 Theodore Roosevelt speech; Liam's reads, "If he fails, at least fails while daring greatly," and Miley's finishes the line with, "So that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat."
Nothing quite quells breakup rumors than with some permanent, physical professions of love!

Lady Gaga vomited four times during a performance in Barcelona.
The singer was physically sick as she performed her track "Edge of Glory," having to stop at the top of a set of stairs during her dance routine to throw up. The pop star battled on with her performance, but carried on vomiting, as a backing dancer tried to cover her from view.
"I went backstage and vomited, and I did not want you to see this ... It happens to me sometimes," she then told the crowd.
The "Bad Romance" hitmaker took the incident in her stride, posting a link to it on her Twitter page, writing, "Was praying nobody saw but actually its quite a good laugh if u need one! Check out Lady PukeGA doing Swan 'Vomit' Lake (sic)."
She also showed spirit when fans poked fun at the singer's recent weight gain at the same show, throwing sausages on stage at her. "SPAIN, you took the p*** outta me. Thats some hard bodied pop stuff. I'll never forget tonight Barcelona. FOREVER' (sic)" she wrote.

Despite Christina Aguilera telling her record company that they're "working with a fat girl" from now on, the former Voice mentor looks as thin as any other pop starlet these days on her new album cover for Lotus.
The 31 year-old posted the sneak peek of the cover - which looks like it took inspiration from Botticelli's The Birth of Venus - through her Twitter account: "Conceptually I didn’t target one particular sound/genre. I made music that felt good."
Lotus is due to hit stores on November 19.

How Zack Ryder used social media to catapult to WWE Superstardom [Interview]
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Features, Internet, Videos,
WWE makes it's return to Everett for the first time in a number of years this evening. For those who don't know, you guys are typically in and out when it comes to a city. Aside from Wrestlemania week, do you get to enjoy your time in a given city?
Not at all. We fly in, find a gym, eat, and head to the arena. We do the show, and we leave to do it again. I've definitely seen some cool airports, hotels, arenas, but we don't get to enjoy our time in the various cities.
What would you say would be the best trip you've taken when you've been on the road?
WrestleMania in Orland was amazing. I went to DisneyLand with my family and had a lot of fun. WrestleMania means we get to spend a full week in one location, so we can enjoy it since it's a break from the in and out that we typically experience on the road.
Let's take a step back. I think it's safe to say that the reason we are having this discussion right now is because you took it upon yourself to get noticed in any way that you could, grabbing that brass ring through the use of social media. Wanna tell us about that?
Yeah, definitely! My whole life I wanted to be a WWE Superstar. That's the only thing I ever wanted to be. I got signed in 2006 and got called up to the main roster in 2007…but I wasn't really doing anything, you know? By February 2011, I was kind of fed up. It wasn't my dream to be just "some guy" on the show. I wanted to be one of the top guys. At the time in February 2011, when I started the YouTube show, I didn't have an action figure. I didn't have a promotional 8x10. I wasn't on TV. I was like a joke. I had no merchandise…nothing.
Russell Crowe: I’ve Never Been Stronger
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Movies, Features,
Russell Crowe has "never been stronger" than he is at 48. Although the actor doesn't have a "ripped" body, his intense exercise regime for new movies Noah and Superman reboot Man of Steel has got him into incredible shape.
In a posting on his Twitter page, he revealed, "I'm 48, definitely feeling my age, but I have never been stronger. My musculature is not fine or ripped, but it's real, Ark builders muscle (sic)"
Russell has been sharing his fitness tips with his followers on the micro-blogging website and he is so dedicated to keeping in shape he will always find time to exercise even after a long day of filming. "Long hours mean short workouts, 7km stat bike, dumbell bench 10 x 50,60,70, 80lbs per hand, 2 x 10 goblet/swing/oh press 50lb kb 50 push ups (sic)" he wrote on the social networking site.
However, Russell is only human and he does still need to relax and he allows himself treats every week: "F*** it, I'm going to have a vodka. It may be 7.27am in the real world, but it's after work for me (sic)."
