Twitter is making some serious tweaks in it's website , and recently it has added support for App Cards . App Cards make it possible to share more than 140 characters of information in a tweet , they show a few lines about the app such as the name , icon and the price assessment . Then you can either click through the App Store or the Google Play Store . Nice isn't it ?
Twitter has already explained the developers how to use them . The app makers of Foursquare , Path , Angry Birds have already joined in .
