Control Panel for Twitter is a Safari extension to improve your experience on Twitter.com by adding new features and options Twitter is missing. By default, your Home timeline will be the chronological "Following" timeline, which will only contain tweets and quote tweets from the people you follow. The algorithmic "For you" timeline will be hidden, and Control Panel for Twitter will keep you on "Following" if Twitter tries to put you back on "For you". Everything is configurable, so start by opening the extension options and customizing to your liking.

About

Tequila District

Features
Read full description

Tequila District is a small social app for people who love tequila. ■ No scores. Just stories. "How many points is this tequila?" — that is not what this app is for. The meaning of your pour was never written in an average of numbers left by strangers. So we removed the scores. What we keep instead is the story: where you were, who you were with, which bottle it was, and how it felt. ■ Log the pour Take a photo, pick the bottle and the bar. That's it — a few seconds. Your pours, the bars you visited and the expressions you met pile up on their own. One day you look back and find a history of tequila that belongs only to you. ■ Send a Salud! Press and hold a pour you like and send a "Salud!" Glasses meeting through the screen, however far apart you are. The toasts that land on your posts can be replayed, again and again. ■ Keep the night together Drinking with friends? Open a session and invite them with a code. Everyone's posts from that night gather into a single card you can open long after everyone has gone home. ■ Find bars that actually pour tequila Browse our partner bars, sorted by how close they are. Walk near one and the app quietly asks if you are starting here. (Location is entirely optional.) Search "bar" and bars come up. Search a bottle and the places that carry it come up. Bars, bottles, people and posts — one search, built only for tequila. ■ Collect the badges Your first post. Ten bars. Fifty pours. The road you walked stays with you. Some are rare. Some are hidden and nobody has found them yet. ■ This app is for you if · You want to talk about a bottle you love with someone who gets it · You want your regular bar to start pouring good tequila · You want to find tequila while travelling · You want a real record of what you have been drinking ■ Drink responsibly · You must be of legal drinking age in your country. · Drinking while pregnant or nursing, and driving under the influence, are prohibited by law. · All posts are made by users. Report or block anything inappropriate from each post's menu. · You can delete your account from within the app at any time. Good time, good company, good agave. Salud! --- Operated by WhiteBearTequila Contact: info@whitebear3.com
