Talon for Twitter is a hot new Twitter app that boasts a number of great features and a solid, slick design.
Where this app really shines, though, is the under the hood tweaks. You can have it stream tweets live instead of having a timed refresh if you prefer. You can customize your notifications, theme, add emoji support in the settings, access a built in browser and YouTube player, and you can even choose between the Standard Talon layout and the Hangouts layout. It also supports two Twitter accounts for you multi-account users out there.
One of the more unique features is Talon Pull which is an ongoing process that shows up in your notifications that opens a pop-out window so you can check Twitter more quickly. This is awesome for two reasons. One, it allows you faster access to Twitter and two, because it shows up in the notifications but not in the status bar. BBM could learn a thing or two from this app.
There is also a themer engine so eventually there will be more options as to what theme you want to run. For now, the standard three are available including black, dark, and white. There is also a Dash Clock widget, Google style pull to refresh, and the standard slide out menus on the left side.
