Tweetie has long been a darling of Mac-owners who are typing 140 characters at a time. And yes, this is the same Tweetie that was bought by Twitter. The iPhone app is now called Twitter for iPhone (lame, I know, but it works). 
The biggest news coming out of the Twitter world over the past day or so is that the company acquired the very popular Mac and iPhone app Tweetie.
On the heels of that news, Tweetie users were somewhat up in arms about what this means for the popular app and whether or not we'd see Tweetie 2 for Mac (Tweetie 2 for the iPhone has been out for months).
Tweetie now becomes Twitter for iPhoneYesterday, Twitter announced some pretty big news that I'm not sure got the attention that it deserved -- they bought the popular iPhone/Mac client Tweetie.
For iPhone users and Mac heads, Tweetie is a popular applications because of its ease of use and Mac-like user interface. The company also announced that they brought on Tweetie's founder and added him to the mobile roster. Conversely, they renamed the application Tweetie for iPhone, with Tweetie for iPad coming sometime later this year.
So, what does this mean for Twitter really?
