Want to write for iPhone Alley? We're hiring!

Post and win a copy of Tweet Push!

The awesome folks over at Polar Bear Farm recently celebrated their 2 millionth iPhone app download, and to mark this auspicious occasion they're hosting a giveaway on iPhone Alley! Up for grabs are 40 regular copies of Tweet Push as well as one copy with a year's worth of credit as a grand prize. Tweet Push [App Store], if you don't already know, sends you push notifications whenever you have a new tweet, mention, or direct message on Twitter. More details here.

All you have to do to enter is post one of your favorite tweets! Read on for the specifics.

So here's how it works. We really enjoy reading funny and or clever things on Twitter. So to get yourself a promo code for Tweet Push, post one of your favorite tweets below in the comments. Be sure to mention the person's Twitter name and link back to the original post. Additionally, tell us what your Twitter name is so we can send you a promo code. Next, if you haven't already, follow iPhone Alley's twitter stream [@iPhoneAlley] so we can direct message you a Tweet Push promo code. We're only giving out one Tweet Push code per person, so choose wisely. The grand prize will go to the person who posts the most entertaining tweet of all, so find the absolute best that you can!

Here's a good example from @theduty

SURGEON GENERAL'S WARNING:

Just Today.... Pretty funny

Something that's been bugging me for years: the sequel to "Scooby Doo" should have been called "Scobby Doo Deux."

I need a transformer that's a BlackBerry when I want to be smart, an iPhone when I'm listening to IDM, and an LG when I need to get ghetto.

WTF???

I think you should have a contest seeing who can jump from the highest cliff...it might eliminate some freaking idiots.

From @DecimusMaximus7 "There are two types of people--those who come into a room and say, 'Well, here I am!' and those who come in and say, 'Ah, there you are.'"

Sexting by Reignofsavannah

I have pretty cool tan lines. I would post a picture...but I think that's considered 'sexting.' (right, @lessenlightened ?)

Mythbuster vs. Homeowners Insurance

This is a two-tweeter, but I thought it was worth it. —@maraklov (hey, that's me!)

From the Mythbuster team's @grantimahara:
"quotes for homeowners insurance. Actual question: Is there a trampoline or skate ramp on the property? LOL!! "

and his followup tweet—

@grantimahara:
"Perhaps I shouldn't tell them about the rockets or fighting robots?"

Good One

From my friend @ZackTanner: It seems as if I eat too much chicken. Will I work on it? No.

It's an alright one, I guess!

Thanks!

Farting in someone's face as I left the movie to go to the bathroom may have been accidental, but I know some part of me did it on purpose.

Looks like it will take a long time to get to 40 posts LOL

Ending the contest today. I'll get the codes out soon.

Sweet!

Just talked to Layton over at Polar Bear farm. All his codes are expired so it'll be another couple weeks before I can get a fresh set of codes. Sorry for the delay!

Doh!

Good news everyone! Tweet Push is now free thanks to Apple changing the In App Purchasing rules. Layton's gonna give you guys 60 days worth of credit. All you have to do is reply here that you've downloaded the app and set up your twitter account.

Be sure to leave your twitter name so we can get it all set up. Thanks!

I've got it installed and it is working great. Does anyone know if they plan to support Tweetie 2?

Downloaded the app and set up my account. I'd like to know if they will support Tweetie 2 as well.

Tweetie 2 has been working with Tweet Push ever since I installed it.

Oh got it to work with Tweetie 2. It just says Tweetie, so I assumed that it was the first version.

The name of the app didn't change on your iPhone from Tweetie 1 to Tweetie 2. It just said Tweetie. That's probably why it still works.

Hey my Twitter name is rfore and my 30 days of free push are up.
