Twitter's SR-71 has Kinks
Dalton Vanhooser - Wednesday, May 12, 2010
Twitter recently released the Blackbird Pie Tool, which allows tweets to be embedded using HTML. While seemingly useful and easy, the tool has proven to have a few kinks to be worked out. It runs comparatively slow considering the task, and it takes manual tweaking of the tweet in order to embed properly. Aesthetically, it requires code to keep the background image from repeating. That, combined with the sluggishness, can be easily resolved in the near future. Obviously released in a bit of a rush, the tool has a few kinks to be worked out. The advantage of the early release, is it gets more usage out of it, allowing the bugs to be discovered and resolved much more quickly. It the tool is to go the way of the SR-71 and be out of commission, we will soon know once a few bolts have been tightened.
