For those who are on the go and still want to know what's popular on Twitter, however, then Retweet [iTunes link] for the iPhone is a new app that's worth a try.
Find Popular Tweets on the iPhone
Retweet, developed by Colin Tulloch, does two things: it aggregates the most popular retweets on Twitter, and it gives a user the ability to retweet anything he or she finds on the application.
Popular retweets can be viewed from the past 30 minutes, 3 hours, 12 hours and 24 hours, ranked based on the number of retweets they received. Check out the web version of Retweet to see how it works.
If you only want one Twitter app on your iPhone, we think something more fully-fledged like Tweetie [$2.99 on iTunes] or TwitterFon [free on iTunes] might be more useful (unlike some Twitter iPhone apps, both of these include retweeting as a feature), but given that Retweet is a better way to see what's buzzing on Twitter right now, it's a good addition to your Twitter app collection.
Retweet does normally come with a price tag: $0.99. However, for the next 24 hours, the developers have dropped the price to free. That might be the excuse you need to give it a spin.
