Plus, Tweetie is waiting for over a week to be updated, and it’s a tiny update to address the Twitpocalypse (the ID of the tweets is now higher than a signed integer). This 3.0 release was better planned than the previous 2.0, but they still need to get some things better.

Here’s one I discovered…gethuman. It’s a database of how to avoid phonetrees for lots of major companies. So if you have to call, for instance, Bank of America, it gives you the phone number and tells you to keep pushing zeros until you get a human, whereas for Amazon it tells you to not say or do anything. And since the number is right there you can just press the call button to make a call. Very handy for getting directly to a real person instead of a phonetree. And it’s free.

It would be nice if Apple would prioritize in situation like this when so many apps are being submitted at once. It’s possible that they do this already but you would think that something reputable and with a relatively long history of doing good work with the app store (BeeJive et al) could be moved through with only a quick glance at the app. There’s so much garbage in the app store, you would think that they would have some kind of system to get the useful apps in and up and running with PNS and 3.0 quickly so that people can start taking advantage of that.
