Seesmic Founder Loic Le Meur on the Future for Twitter Developers

Loic Le Meur is one of my favorite people and one reason is his constant and never wavering positive attitude. As the CEO of Seesmic, developer of both stand alone and web-based Twitter apps, as well as one of the best Twitter apps for Android phones, one would think he’d have a very good reason to be depressed right now, considering the latest news from Twitter. Apparently Twitter has finally gotten smart and decided to start adding functionality to their website they should have added long ago, and has also started releasing “official” Twitter apps for the iPhone, BlackBerry and Android phones.

But, that’s not the way Loic is wired. Rather than moping around complaining that Twitter screwed him, he’s still optimistic about the future and will just put his efforts into developing apps that Twitter won’t be producing in-house. And who knows, maybe Twitter will buy his Twitter app instead of developing their own. Frankly, I hope they do, because I love Seesmic for Android.
