UberMedia Announces UberCurrent, A Breakthrough Twitter App That Lets You Easily Follow The World’s Most Influential Tweet

PASADENA, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- UberMedia, the leading independent provider of applications for reading and posting to Twitter and other social media platforms, has announced its release of UberCurrent for the iPhone. Previously in beta form and listed in the app store as UberSocial, the Twitter application has been admired for its customization capabilities, targeted filters and sleek design. While presenting an exciting new way to experience the power of Twitter for those already familiar with the service, UberCurrent also invites potential Twitter users to see what the buzz is all about by offering the ability to track top tweets in desired categories even without an active Twitter account.

“UberCurrent is a uniquely designed Twitter app that caters to users in an entirely different way,” said Bill Gross, CEO of UberMedia. “In addition to offering the Twitter experience to everyone, with or without a Twitter account, UberCurrent creates a unique streamlining process for getting valuable content to the appropriate users. At UberMedia we’re continually looking to enhance the user experience, and early feedback reinforces our belief that UberCurrent is something users have been looking for. ”

UberCurrent’s sleek, easy-to-use design features a grid and tab view that optimizes reading and provokes social exploration. Users aren’t restricted to the confines of their own timeline; the app provides preloaded lists of the most notable influencers in various categories such as sports, politics and entertainment, among others.

A simple yet powerful design assures seamless transition from the user’s personal Twitter timeline to tweets from the most notable icons and entertainers. Not only are top tweets easily accessible, but content can also be filtered and “@replies” omitted, resulting in a consolidated stream of current content and information. Additionally, users are able to update personal statuses to both Twitter and Facebook, while simultaneously sharing messages, media and link sites to multiple communications platforms.
