Are you a fan of Tapulous? Love their apps, especially Tap Tap Revenge 1 and 2? While Number 2 is clearly the best one, being that it’s free and all the free downloadable tracks with the themes for it, makes it one of the best Free Apps on the app store, especially for games. Well maybe you want more Tap Tap right? Well if you obviously a fan of Coldplay then obviously Tap Tap Coldplay is right for you.

This is probably my most favorite artist release Tap Tap that Tapulous has put out. I love it, Tapulous has picked out 13 of probably the most played/liked Coldplay songs ever. The song list includes:

- Lovers in Japan (Osaka Sun Mix)
- Lost
- In My Place
- Fix You
- Life in Technicolor ii
- Clocks
- Yellow
- Shiver
- Speed of Sound
- Viva la Vida
- Viva la Vida (Thin White Duke Remix)

Now not all come in easy, medium, hard and extreme, most songs like clocks or shiver are in the Easy-Extreme Modes. But trust me its pretty worth it. When this was released it was 5 dollars just like the other band Tapulous apps, but now it’s only 4, which is a deal. I support Tapulous because I love their apps, although they kinda price them at ehh prices 4 dollars and they would be selling like hotcakes.

Tap Tap Coldplay offers new themes obviously that always comes with the new band Tap Taps. Look in the screenshots, there rectangular white glowing buttons now. With pictures of members from the bands. The special song at the end of each level as well has a theme to go with it.

I have yet to get a 100% on a Tap Tap Coldplay song, and no I haven’t tried Easy! Lol im not taking the easy route. I’ve tried on medium and up. But if you get a 100% on one send me a screen shot ill in you in my post, thanks :) .

Well that pretty much wraps it up, If you love guitar hero, or rockband, or any Tap Tap apps, Coldplay’s a good one for you. I mean who doesn’t love coldplay? I give it a 4.9 out of 5, the price got me lol.

Having A Problem deciding which Twitter client to buy for you iPhone? Don’t wanna spend the $3.99 for Twitterrific and not like it? Or maybe $2.99 for Tweetie? Or $4.99 for TwitterFon Pro? Well leace your worries to me, Below will be a handful of screenshots, showing you every single page from all three twitter clients. I’ll also let you know which one I think is the best and the one you should buy.

I just got into Twitter recently, back in April or so. My first one was TwitterFon, the baby version of TwitterFon Pro, LOL yes the Free one. But then I kinda wanted something better. Something that was even better than the regular web version of twitter. Something that offered a lot at once in one app. I’ve heard a lot from each of these apps, stuff like Tweetie is the best, or Twitterrific is better, but not too much from TwitterFon Pro, sorry LOL.

Lets start off with Twitterrific Premium. This is currently my twitter client that I use all around. Why? It offers a lot more than the other two IMO.

Why I Like Twitterrific:
I like twitterrific because it has like a really nice graphic UI, it’s so nice that it comes with 3! Yup, themes like Raven, Snowy, and if your really boring – Basic. Raven and Snowy are obviously the best, my favorite though is Raven. It also lets you adjust the font size in the top right hand corner where you see the tweets you’ll see an icon that looks like this: “aA” I like medium, because small only allows texts, but more tweets in the screen, medium offers the picture and the tweets with a good amount of tweets and large is if your far-sighted and can’t see close, there HUGE!

Nice little things in the app:
When you click on a tweet, for example in the screenshot I used @charlestrippy , he’s cool LOL. You then get the rest of the icons on the bottom like the “*” and the “reply” to reply to the tweet you selected. Then when you hit the other button that looks like a signal bar the very last button, you then get options such as going to the author’s profile, tweets sent to the author, retweet the tweet LOL, links, favorite it, mark it for future reference and email the link to anyone in your contacts.

The other nice thing is that it has a little tab to take you to your own mentions, replies, messages, marked tweets and such. Unlike tweetie and twitterfon which has them straight on the menu, this gives you a tab for the tabs :).

When posting a tweet its nice because lets say you want to manually retweet something, or want to look at another tweet for reference it does just that, by hitting the eyeball next to the character limit. It lets you scroll through the tweets that are already there. This could be helpful when giving information.

In the Tweet menu, it gives you three icons above the tweet area. Icons for shortening the url, which you can set in the settings pane. And a camera icon when you want to post a picture with your tweet. Then it has the location symbol to find your location and where your at.

The settings are a little hard to get to but you get to them by hitting, the back button called sources, then from there you’ll see settings, and the public timeline and the trending topics for the day/week. In settings your also allowed to change the bird sound that happens when you get new tweets, by default its Classic Bluebird. You can change your theme, prefer whether you want screen names or the real names, for example with me, Luis or iRockIsh? Get it? You can also set the photo quality when you send a picture to be uploaded with your image provider.


Now Onto Tweetie & TwitterFon:

Both of these applications are pretty much the same in every way. I took screenshots and you’ll probably say “WTF? You took the same ones” No that’s just how similar these applications are too each other.

Main Screen:
When you first open tweetie of course you have to log in to your account then it takes you to the main screen. On both you get pretty much the same tabs for example Tweets, Mentions, Messages, Favs, and more which contain very little settings. The main settings tab is in your main Settings app on the homescreen.

When you click on a tweet, in tweetie, you get a separate page for the tweet, which is a little time consuming, unlike twitterrific which just keeps you on the same page and such, but anyway on that page you get a forward icon which allows you to reply to the author or retweet the tweet. You also get to see any links with the next icon, and favorite it as well, there is also a reply, to reply to the author

In messages you get the little boxes to switch between you inbox and sent messages. Pretty simple, in more you get to see your profile, go to a specific user, see whose nearby your location, the trends for the day and search for tweets containing certain words, its nice and simple and your still allowed to post a tweet from any tab. TwitterFon does this too except the only difference between the two apps, is the color of the top of the tabs, and the certain settings they allow.

The nice thing about TwitterFon is it gives you a landscape keyboard just like what’s coming in the iPhone 3.0 software! You also get to shake to reload, you just shake your device and they refresh the tweets in the tweet page.

The thing I like about tweetie is that its simple, I obviously love simple apps that do what they say they do and I think that tweetie does just that. It gives you a nice interface to post tweets and something that doesn’t take too long to load

Twitterrific is still my best choice, its only 4 bucks and definetly worth it. It gives you some nice graphic UI for your money. I like it because to me it still gives a lot of features and for only a buck more its like tweetie but with extra features and the themes choice. Kind of the difference between an iPhone, and Jailbroken iPhone ya know?

Althought Tweetie is number 1 in App Store for Twitter Client, my Winner for this little Battle would have to be TWITTERRIFIC
