Twitter API is down

If you are experiencing difficulties to post to Twitter from DroidIn or even enable Twitter support, please be aware that according to Twitter Support Blog

Due to defensive measures we’ve taken against the ongoing denial-of-service attack, some Twitter clients are unable to communicate with our API, and many users are unable to tweet via SMS.

We are working as quickly as possible to restore our full service.

DroidIn 1.2.0 – LinkedIn meets Twitter

Since DroidIn has been accused to be “just like Twitter” 1.2.0 release brings new feature where LinkedIn status update can be duplicated to the Twitter feed of user’s choosing. Feature is entirely optional but once enabled will simply replicate LinkedIn status updates to Twitter feed.
As usual freebee users have some limitations – status can only be twitted once every 24 hours. Which, by the way does not affect LinkedIn updates – these can be posted with no limitations.

To enable the feature please select “Preferences” from the app’s menu and check “Twitter Enable” checkbox

Twitter functionality is brand new and somewhat experimental. Please report any problems you may experience
