Further, actions will be synced immediately when the user goes online.

The Tweetie 2 app also facilitates users to post photos and videos and configure their custom image host. The enhanced iPhone App features recent hashtags, URL shortening and more. It enables users to compose screen multiple-attachments manager and follow, un-follow, block and unblock from multiple accounts simultaneously. The app also syncs saved searches with Twitter.com and auto-complete recent searches and Go-to-user.

Threaded Direct Messages and improved conversation navigation are also made possible. The Tweetie 2 features TextExpander integration as well as amalgamation with Follow Cost, Tweet Blocker, Favstar.fm and others.

Apparently the Tweetie 2 iPhone app is retailed at the App Store for $2.99.
