UberTwitter, now called UberSocial, is a dedicated mobile twitter application. It was originally designed exclusively for blackberry handsets but is now available on almost every smart phone brand.
UberSocial attempts to tackle the problems created when bringing the full functionality of twitter to a handheld device. UberSocial's main goal is to make twitter user friendly on the small screen space provided by smart phones. The application avoids these obstacles by presenting tweets in expanding views and a smoothly scrolling timeline. UberSocial gives the user easy access to twitter search as well as trending hash-tags and topics.
