This is just a quick update to my Nuvola theme for Bluebird. The main difference is that it shows relative time instead of the regular time (such as ‘3 minutes ago’). When you mouse-over a tweet, the time disappears and reply/dm/permalink/retweet buttons appear. Its kind of fun!

Thanks to Na Wong & Alex Sancho for help with getting the relative time back!

I’ve made a quick update to Nuvola for the new version of Bluebird . It is a bit different, now when your mouse hovers over a tweet, buttons for replies, direct messages, and re-tweeting will appear in the upper right-hand corner. ;)

I’ve updated my Bluebird theme that I released last week. Although it looks very similar, it was pretty much completely redone. I have renamed it Nuvola, which means “cloud” in Italian. I figure it fits since it is white, blue and gray. ;)

When you double-click anywhere in a tweet, buttons will slide down for replying, direct messaging, and re-tweeting. It also now features relative time, and when you click the time of the tweet, it will take you to the tweet’s permalink in your browser. Lastly, the background colors have been refined for readability. You can see the new features in action here.

Thank you to Na (for relative time & avatar mask) and to Laurent (for his amazing themes!). :D

So a early beta of the great little Mac OSX twitter application, Bluebird was released yesterday! I have been testing it for the past few weeks, and its just a fantastic little app.

I quickly whipped up a mod of one of the bluebird themes for fun, you can see a preview of it above… and you can download my Bluebird theme here. :)

[For anyone who downloaded it off of my twitter, little changes include: better spacing overall and better-looking direct messages.]
