Then late in the week Travis made an awesome discovery. Instead of doing Twitter integration "natively" by calling APIs from within the application, we could harness the fact that our devices have web browsers on board that our applications can also utilize. Essentially what was discovered is a small piece of HTML code that posts "Tweets" directly from a browsers address bar. By calling this code in our app, the device recognizes the code as html, opens a browser within our app and makes the tweet (also allowing the user to log in if they aren't already) Awesome!
Yeah, I know it's not exactly what we were going for, but it works and it's simple.
The rest of the time was spent doing small code cleanup and debugging while trying not to step on anyone else's toes or introduce any more new bugs while the team prepped fro the class demo.
