Poll: What's your favorite iPhone Twitter app?
Tweetie 2 adds a boatload of new features, including persistence: It returns you to where you left off the last time you used the app.
Twitter apps are like candy bars: everybody's got a favorite. For me it's Milky Way and TweetDeck.
Of course, there's always room for change. For instance, the Take 5 bar is increasingly my go-to treat (better hide your Halloween stash, kids), and I might just jump ship to Tweetie 2, which debuted in the App Store over the weekend.
Priced at $2.99, Tweetie's the top-paid app in the Social Networking section of the store.
New features in version 2 include an offline mode, new-message indicators, full landscape support, video uploads (for 3GS users), and faster overall performance.
So this begs the question: what's your favorite Twitter app, and why? Vote in our poll!
In the meantime, check out Webware's recent roundup of Twitter apps that let you manage multiple accounts.
And, hey, if you're headed to the comments to talk up Twitter apps, feel free to name your favorite candy, too. It's Halloween time, after all, and I can't help wondering if anyone else is harboring a secret love for Swedish Fish.

It does not allow all the features from Twitter, but IM+ does have it's own browser and can allow you to use multiple instant messaging in one app.
Ewww. That's like asking, "What's your favorite Jonas Brothers album?"

Way better than anything else I've tried.

- I love Tweetie but I'm standing on principle and not paying another $2.99 for Tweetie 2. Should be a free upgrade for loyal customers.
