Version 2.0 of twitbin has been completely rewritten from the ground up. EVERYTHING is faster. Everything is smoother. Almost everything is prettier too.  So we’re also unveiling a new version of the site, and we are hoping to get your feedback (both positive and negative) on the new version so that we can make it much better.

One thing that is coming back is the ads. We can’t really keep running the system without them.  We will be offering an option to remove the ads, but we are going to try and keep that option affordable and for those of you who don’t remove them, we will make them infrequent.  If you want to get some free advertising when the new version is launched. Please email me twitbin[at]gmail.com
