On May 26th, I’ll be speaking at 140 | The Twitter Conference, alongside two of my heroes: @bs and @atebits:

What Makes a Great Twitter App?

Panelists: Loren Brichter, Britt Selvitelle, Dom Sagolla

At the core of Twitter’s popularity is it’s utter simplicity. Building on top of that functionality while retaining the ease of use and visual appeal of Twitter itself is no easy task. This panel, including both external developers and one of Twitter’s own user experience players, will talk about the design and functionality choices they made, how they worked with the API to streamline them, and how you can apply these concepts to your own applications.

We’ll be discussing:

• Purpose-driven user interface design
  
• Managing system resources
• The limitations of mobile devices
• Working with the 100-call hourly API limit

Hope you can join us! Our session is from 11:30-12:30 at the Computer History Museum in Mountain View.

Update: Scoble took these pictures and MSNBC has a few shots of us on stage in the background during their report:
