Twitter for Mac, which is essentially Tweetie for Mac developed by Loren Brichter before it was acquired by Twitter will no longer see any new releases, this according to a tweet from MG Siegler about a week ago. So yes, that sucks, and part of an ongoing trend from Twitter where they […]

Comments Off on Phil Schiller explains the lightning connector and why there’s no NFC in the iPhone 5
Apple showed off the iPhone 5 for the first time this past Wednesday and though they introduced a number of new features – 4G support, a larger screen, an upgraded camera – one rumored feature wasn’t mentioned at all.
