Today we have tested an application that had some attention in the media and which looks pretty nice. Mobli lets you discover photos and videos about the things you love, the people you find interesting and from places around the world. Mobli uses a geo-localization feature when posting your photos and to show you from other places as well.

The app comes with social features like sign up using Facebook and sharing via email, Facebook and Twitter. From the dashboard you can start posting your photos or discover what other users are posting using whether the channels, around you, the most popular, to search for a topic or using the live feed, where you can access to a live stream of what other users are posting.

The UI is pretty intuitive even with all the features around that could make it noisy and disturbing, but the way they are using it makes the experience pleasant and enjoyable. It lacks of some functionality that we can find in other photography based apps like Instagram but i’m sure we all see that feature really soon.

Twitter has recently updated its mobile web application, integrating HTML5 and a introducing a new design very similar to its well-known App for iPhone and iPod Touch. This new mobile website works very well in Safari, replacing its address bar with a fancy menu bar with shortcuts to Twitter’s main features: Timeline, Mentions, Direct Messages, Searches & User Profile. The Timeline has a nice performance with smooth scrolling and also displaying users thumbnails. One cool feature is that tweets now displays images within, saving time to open new web browsers windows to display pics. As a result Twitter came up with fast & cool web app, very similar to its iOS app and with an excellent user experience, just like Twitter’s blog said:

“This web app allows us to provide a high-quality and consistent Twitter experience on high-end touchscreen devices.”

… and they sure achieved this.

Kickball is a new way to play with Foursquare, Twitter and Facebook using the same logins, but they add a lot of efforts in the UI design which is really eye caching. They say “We simplified everything down to what matters most—friends and places.”

In its roadmap we can see Kickball soon will have support for Gowalla and Loopt.

There is not much to say about this app. As you all know Twitter bought a few months ago the iPhone app called Tweetie and hired its developer. Twitter for iPad has some similarity to Tweetie for the Mac and iPhone. But not only with that they added some new features to the way you will use this app that soon will be in every iPad app. There are a few (minor) things I don’t like in the UI, like for example the space to write a new tweet. What I love the most are the gestures you can use to make your experience as satisfactory as you need.
