Tweet 360 (formerly Twitter 360) is a new application specifically developed for the iPhone 3GS that enables you to visualize your Twitter friends located in your nearby environment, thanks to a unique Augmented Reality functionality using the iPhone camera.

Tweet 360 is one of the first iPhone applications to use the new Twitters Geotagging feature to geotag your tweets.

Please, note that Tweet 360 does not intend to be a fully Twitter client, our goal is to provide a different approach to the Twitter experience. We are already working on new ideas to be added in this application.

FEATURES
************************************************************

- Tweet 360 annotates your tweets with GPS location information. Your friends can now see, via Augmented Reality, the location from where your last tweet was posted. Geotagging is disabled by default for all users, which means you will need to turn it on by going to Twitter.com "settings" section in order to use it in Tweet 360 app.

- “Latest Tweets” mode. See the latest tweets of your friends (iPhone horizontal position), and the location from where they were posted (iPhone vertical position) using the Augmented Reality functionality. When a tweet is selected, a blue arrow (compass) is displayed to show the direction and the distance to the location from where the tweet was posted. The distance is updated in real time as you walk in the streets.

- Touch the Star to add your best Twitter friends in your favorites.

- “Locate my Friends” mode. List of all your best friends. Tweet 360 lets you track geographic movements of your friends, you can now see where are located your nearby friends via Augmented Reality. If you want to hang out with a particular friend, use this tool to go meet him / her. Unlike the “Latest Tweets” mode (which is more focused on the tweets), the location of each of your friends is calculated with the “location” field data on the Twitter account. When a friend is selected, a blue arrow is displayed to show the direction and the distance to the location of that friend. The selected friend is highlighted in blue. The distance is updated in real time as you walk in the streets.

- When you launch Tweet 360, a small bird will localize your exact position and update the “location” field data on your Twitter account with the coordinates, only if you want.

- The application is fully compatible with Google Map. It is possible to locate your nearest Twitter friends from your position on Google Map within the application.

- Switch off the geolocalization option in the setting to be in “invisible” mode. Your friends wont be able to see where you are anymore. Your tweets wont be geotagged.

The Augmented Reality functionality is only available to iPhone 3GS users. This application does not work on other iPhone / iPod Touch models for the moment.

Latest reviews of Tweet 360 app for iPhone and iPad

Needs a lot of work
I dont like this app. I have several Twitter apps on my phone & this one is the worst. It has a great concept, but leaves out access to the essentials, like dms, mentions, trends, lists, etc... Please keep working on it and add these key elements. I wont be using it on any regular basis until you do.
Dont bother
Confusing interface, pretty useless. If you spend money on a Twitter app, spend it on Tweetie.
1 last thing....
I have a iPod touch 1st gen and I was disapointed when i found out it only works for 3gs
I have an itouch 2nd generation, doesnt work with it
I will have to give one star until my itouch can use this!!!! Then when I can actually use it I will upgrade my review as well. Thoight it sounded cool so i am also dissapointed that i cant use it! 
Cool
This is awsome. Why are you guys giving this app a bad review? It says in the description that you need a iPhone 3GS for it to work.
