Yeah but that mobile site is lacking so much. Although I might not use it as much as facebook, still would be good to see a 3rd party G+ app in the future maybe.

It's a pity that the good mobile version doesn't work properly (maybe because of IE9 in Mango?) - only the classic and that one is too limited.. I'm using the full version, even though it's not as comfortable to use, it does its job.

since G+ is not public i guess you will have to wait for release.
i dont know for sure, but i guess there are no apis yet for developers to write apps to use with the G+ Api. once Google releases that you will get a native phone app

you can upload photos to Google+ with a Picasa Photo Uploader App like "Phone Picasa". Then use Google+ in the Browser and comment this photo. It should be visible in the stream.

Implying google plus is actually worth using...

It'll come as a plugin to the Hubs eventually. But until then... are you really interested in your 10 circle friends which are posting the same things on Facebook?
It's still in testing, and needs some improvements. It does have potential though, and I do think it will compete well with FB.

Gotta agree with this. Even having tried it on my old touch pro with Android, I'm not seeing anything remarkable about G+ at all.
Guess that's lucky because if it takes off, we WP7 guys are screwed for decent support!

Its seems that the Google+ Mobile site is now compatible with IE:

There were also some news about a Google+ app for WP7, but those turned out to be rumous.

Some fresh news:

Kevin Marshall from Clarity Consulting just posted this screenshot. We’re trying to figure out what it is…well I mean aside from a Windows Phone 7 Google+ app of course.
It’s worth noting that Clarity are the developers of the official Facebook app…so let’s let the rampant speculation begin.

Kevin Marshall, Developer from Clarity Consulting has tweeted a screenshot of an app. The app looks like Google+ app for Windows Phone. For your information, Clarity Consulting is the dev behind Official Facebook app for Windows Phones.
The only issue for me is that, by the time the app comes to marketplace, Google+ may die. Most of the discussion on Google+ for the past few days has been, whether Google+ is dead or not.

FOR 2.1 Only !
My personal strategy does not involve, being on 2.1 until an official release gets modded, so I can't use it. Maybe it aught to be said up front. FOR 2.1 Only ! Doesn't show in my 1.5 market.
Just for the record.

You're only doing yourself a disservice, the jump from 1.5 to the current 2.1 build everyone is using is massive compared to what an official release is going to provide on top of what we have.

You may be right. That's why it's personal. I'm not recommending it. I'm not justifying it. It just is.
Back on topic: the 2.1 issue for com.twitter.android should be posted. Even the QR code should have been posted.

the sync is strange. I even switched it to Sync All and it did add the people I follow to my contacts, but the one contact that I already had in my phonebook, whom I also follow on twitter, did not get added or updated with the twitter link. oh well.
I found the map interaction after viewing a profile that had location-based tweets turned on, then pressing Menu > map.
yay
this twitter app is sick, i like the animations, and its pretty smooth.

Who cares about widgets if it can't maintain a connection to facebook more than a day or two? Has that been fixed?
Actually...I think there's something wrong on Facebook's end...Tweetdeck is reporting there are some problems with the FB api.

Eh, that doesn't really matter... what matters is their app advertises as an "all in one" social app, when in reality the Facebook part is broken. Don't add features until the core functionality of the app works IMO.
Well you can't really blame them for Facebook recently having problems though because in the beginning, it worked fine.
[Q] how do i stay current with the latest td beta
I am currently running .98 but how do I know when a new version is out?
I hope there is a new version out because I can no longer add my facebook or buzz accounts :-(

i like tweetdeck but one thing that annoyed me was the facebook thing, i want to post from facebook but dont want it in my timeline, as soon as i sign in it updates my collumns with facebook crap, i know you can turn it off but even when you turn of facebook, the posts still say there untill other posts e.g. tweets push them to the bottom. apart from that and i know its only a minor thing tweetdeck is easily the best social media management tool on your mobile and desktop devices. i think its just the fact that people like to keep things simple, and the official twitter app is REALLY simple to use, also like i said "official", this probably has a big effect on people, some people arent to keen on third party apps, apart from people on here lol, if you didnt like third party then i really doubt youd be on this forum
thanx for posting the apk...
It's in the market. So you don't need the apk anymore.

Steam Droid Chat

Steam friends app for Android, for mobile chatting with friends on Valve's Steam platform.
I've released version 1.1 yesterday, after a fail with the certificates used for signing the apk. Some people have reported issues with the new version, stating the app claims to be incompatible with their phones.
Now on my phone it still works, I think it might have something to do with the previous version still being installed on the phone. So I recommend removing any previous versions before installing.
You can find the app by searching for 'Steam Droid Chat' on the Android Market. It's the one with the green logo (there's another app with a similar name, please note that my app is free).
The source is available at GitHub, I'll post a link as soon as I'm allowed to do so.
Please let me know what you think and if you encounter any bugs.
Edit: I noticed the title is incorrect, I'm sorry for that, could a moderator change it? It's an app and the minimum Android version is 2.2.
Amazing app!
I can finaly chat with my friends on the road
You could add user name and password on start screen. It's kinda hard to find it.
So here is link for the app (in QR code format)

Well, I used a library for that. Search bitbucket for SteamRE, run by VoiDeD.
So I didn't actually do any Steam related code in the app.
I guess this question will arise sooner or later so let's get this out of the way:
How is our login info treated? Where is it sent and how? My Steam account is quite valuable and I'm not taking any chances with it.
I mean no disrespect, I've been waiting for an app like this for ages.

I also want to know if this app is trustworthy with login info.
Also, is there any chance of getting group chat on this app? That would be really nice.

What the Facebook App would look like with the Holo Theme

Hi,
I wasn't very satisfied with the look of the original Facebook app for Android: mostly because it still doesn't follow the design guidelines of Android 4, even though ICS is already over a year old. So I decided to redesign the facebook app by myself and want now to share my results with you. You can find them in the attachments section (2 Versions, i couldn't decide with is better). Tell me what you think about it, I hope you like it
If you want this pictures in a higher quality or in the .xcf format let me know.
Download Link: https://docs.google.com/open?id=0B7Xo_jDGP2MvYUxaVGpMRkR0ME0
actually ICS is not a year old yet. It was introduced in October 2011, and the Galaxy Nexus released in November 2011. Also I don't think it looks to good.
Interesting concept, I think I'd prefer an app similar to google+
Sent from my ADR6300 using xda premium
Looks really good, man. I'm a huge fan of the minimal look. Any chance you could throw up a dl link in the open? I'm on the xda app right now but I'd love to try it out.

I'm not sure if you got this but it's just a design concept, not an Facebook app, but yeah I can upload the gimp and the high resolution version .
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda app-developers app
Sorry , my fault. Is there a possibility to put the Holotheme into the official Facebook App?
Sent from my LG-P700 using xda premium
I'm sure it's possible but you need a some serious skills if you want to change the complete layout of an app and unfortunately I'm not able to do it. But you could ask a developer if he could develop such app
P.S.: Download Links for High-Res Concept Images + gimp-Files will be up soon.
EDIT: Done. See first Post for files.
I found this thread via Google... I have designed (NOT written) a HOLO-themed Facebook app myself. It's just a concept, although if someone is interested in making this app I wouldn't mind him contact me
I'm sorry for the large image, but it's the only way one can see all the details (and I wouldn't know how to make a thumbnail... not at 1:42am anyways).

Thank you! I find that myself, too. The current Facebook-app doesn't match the ICS / JB HOLO theme and isn't that quick either. It really decreases the quality of the user experience.
However, since I don't have any knowledge of building apps whatsoever, I am afraid it'll just remain a concept - unless or until some developer wants to help me, that is.
Very nice concept!
Yeah, if somebody out there would develop, it will be very polished and neat. Goes along well with ICS, JB and above I believe .
Fast for Facebook
