Android Users to get an Official Twitter App


Android Twitter team has been making lots of changes in their strategies these days. They have also bought popular iPhone app ‘Tweetie’ to attract iPhone users and now they are planning to go one step ahead.

In Chirp event, Twitter’s CEO Evan Williams talked about the future of Twitter and other important aspects of the company. He also announced that Android platform will get an official Twitter app.

After announcing free official apps for iPhone and Blackberry platform, Twitter team want to grab the attention of Android users. Android platform already have some cool Twitter clients like Twitdroid and Seesmic, but arrival of the new app will hopefully bring more features.

However, it would be interesting to see whether Twitter acquires any third party client (as they did it with Tweetie for iPhone) or develop a new client for Android devices. Official application for Twitter is definitely a great thing for Twitter users, but small developers will feel the true competition.

Third party developers have to work really hard to sustain in this huge competition, or else they will lose everything in the business.
