If you're just looking for the application, then you need to visit the Quakk homepage.

If you're after having a peek at the code, contributing, criticising, or even stealing some of it for use in your own Twitter application, then you're in the right place. The solution can be downloaded from CodePlex

Some ideas I have to improve Quakk going forward, that you may be interested in helping with:

• GPS - Enable users to update their Location using GPS
• Auto-Update Main Timeline - Enable users to set a time interval for Quakk to Update the main timline
• Detect new software update - Quakk should check home every 25 updates to see if there's a new version
• View X's timeline in menu - Adding "View User" to the popup menu so users can view another user's timeline
• Unit Testing - I have yet to begin unit testing, although I've read quite a bit about it, so if someone fancies holding my hand through my first steps, that would be great!

Yowsers! It's finally here, the final build of Quakk v1.0.

Here's a few things that have been fixed/tweaked since the last beta:

• No longer crashes randomly when updating
• Send Tweet window auto-closes when your Tweet is sent
• The height of each Tweet is now ALWAYS large enough to fit the text in
• The local time set on your device is now taken into account when displaying Tweet times
• The direct message timeline now works
• The drawing of each tweet is now done using double-buffering to minimize flicker

QuakkSetup.cab

Copy the CAB file to your Windows Mobile device and run it, the CAB installer will install Quakk and create a shortcut in your Programs menu.

You might need to download and install the .NET Compact Framework 2 if you're running Windows Mobile 5 - if so, you can download that here.

I don't know how much more I'm going to add to Quakk in the future, as I have other crazy contraptions I want to build, but I am planning on open sourcing it very soon, once I've had the chance to clean up the code.

Follow me on Twitter (@littlecharva) to keep abreast of any further updates.

In order for Quakk to move out of the Beta stage it really needs an icon. If you fancy your skills as a designer and want your work to be on the screens of hundreds of people's mobile devices then send me your best shot. Twitter me @littlecharva.

It took a little longer than I'd hoped to get a new update sorted, and I didn't get as many new features added as I'd have liked, but when it comes to a choice of beers in the sun with the boys, or sitting inside coding, you can guess which one wins out every time.

In this release I managed to get the colours working on replies (they now show up in green); the tweets now automatically resize depending upon how much text is in them; each tweet also displays the date and time it was sent; and you can now send a direct message from the context menu by clicking on a tweet. Behind the scenes I did a lot of tidying up the code, but you don't really care about that do you?

I don't think there's much more I'll add to Quakk going forward. I'd like to pretty the UI up a bit and try to implement some gradients for your aesthetic pleasure; I'll probably add one or two extra options to the context menu; and there are one or two bugs I've started to notice that need fixing.

I'm suprised that no-one has left any bug reports in the comments or twittered them to me - I've had an average of 30 hits per day to the Quakk tag in this blog since I posted a link on the Twitter Wiki, and although I haven't been able to record the download counts so far, I find it hard to believe that no-one has downloaded it or encountered a bug - come on folks.

Alternatively, if you've downloaded it and like it, then follow me on Twitter (@littlecharva) and send me some love baby!

Just finished an update to my Windows Mobile Twitter client Quakk. You can download the latest version here:

Changes:

• Added the ability to view your Replies as well as Direct Messages - under the Timeline menu.
• Added a context menu that allows you to reply or open a link by clicking on the relevant Tweet.

Bugs Fixed:

• No longer just quits when there is a problem connecting to Twitter.

I now need to fix some smaller bugs, refactor the code (it's becoming a bit of a mess under the hood), extend the context menu (View User's Timeline, Send Direct Message, Unfollow, etc.) and tart up the UI a little.

I hope to have another beta update out within a week.
Any comments, bugs or feature requests, Twitter me @littlecharva.
