❤ from Inspired Magazine

Within days of release, the lovely folks at Inspired Magazine included Feathers in their post titled 10 Beautifully Designed iPhone [UI]tilities alongside such greats as Tweetie 2, Pastebot, and Convert.

Needless to say, I'm honored to have Feathers featured next to such greats.

I was floored by the initial response and the outpouring of love on Twitter. Here's a smattering of the initial tweets.
