Well this is interesting. Amid all the hoopla about the new iOS Twitter client Tweetbot tonight, people began noticing something. In The “Requirements” section of the App Store, there’s something odd listed. Alongside the usual iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad compatibility, apps are being listed as compatible with something named “ix.Mac.MarketingName”.
Yep. Weird. And this is all over the App Store right now.
Now the big question: is this just some fluke, a bug — or is this actually a placeholder for something much more? A fourth type of iOS device perhaps?![TWEEBOT IS THE IPHONE APP YOU’LL PROBABLY REPLACE TWITTER WITH [APPS]](http://img716.imageshack.us/img716/7940/bgifhosttechcrunch.gif "TWEEBOT IS THE IPHONE APP YOU’LL PROBABLY REPLACE TWITTER WITH [APPS]"){kind=small}

AngelPad, the incubator found by ex-Googlers in order to help a select 15 startups make it here or anywhere, has officially opened up its application process for its summer 2011 cohort.
AngelPad selects startups twice a year and is looking for its third round of contenders today, putting out it’s application tonight in order to find the best and the brightest. In case you’re debating about whether to apply to YCombinator, 500 Startups or AngelPad, founder Thomas Korte tell me that what makes Angelpad different from other accelerator programs is its size (small) and its emphasis on product and market.

Don’t focus on making new Twitter clients.
The message has been very clear — well, moderately clear — for weeks now. If you’re a third-party looking to develop in the Twitter ecosystem, you should focus on data or niche experiences. Good thing Tweetbot didn’t listen.
If you’ve looked at Twitter tonight, there’s a good chance you’ve seen the massive amount of buzz surrounding Tweetbot. It’s a new Twitter iPhone client made by Tapbots. And yes, it is very good.![TWEEBOT IS THE IPHONE APP YOU’LL PROBABLY REPLACE TWITTER WITH [APPS]](http://img709.imageshack.us/img709/7940/bgifhosttechcrunch.gif "TWEEBOT IS THE IPHONE APP YOU’LL PROBABLY REPLACE TWITTER WITH [APPS]"){kind=small}

We’ve seen a rather creepy array of robots programmed to mimic human emotions, but teaching a machine to feel regret? Now, that’s a new one. With funding from Google, a team of Tel Aviv University researchers is working on an algorithm to teach compute…
