Not sure how Twitter gains here.

On the other hand, Google wins big.

Did you do *any* research or look at the new design for longer than 30 seconds?

Pages and groups are on the Info tab.

Pokes are under the profile picture.

Ignore All is right there when you go to view your requests.

I've checked the Info tab on 3 or 4 of my friends and it lists their pages and groups underneath their details.

Here is Scobles for instance:

Re: No Firefox for the Apple iPhone

Think you are adding 2+2 and getting 4.5 here.

The issue is that iPhone is Cocoa/Objc for apps and Webkit for rendering pages. You can't put .net, Java or XUL on there. And to be honest I think thats fair. Why should Firefox get a pass that other developers don't? Its not a case of Apple saying Mozilla can't put their apps on there, but rather they have the same limitations as any other iPhone developer. Apple dont want non-native code, non-native widgets using non-native frameworks. Its as simple as that really. Something like Camino would easily be able to get onto the AppStore IMO
