According to a tweet from Facebook’s Mike Matas this morning, the company’s new social home screen project has gained itself a hot collaborator. Matas says that developer and designer Loren Brichter is ‘helping out’ his Facebook Home team.
As the creator of the much-loved Tweetie for Mac, Brichter was snapped up by Twitter and worked for a while to integrate his apps with the service, where they eventually became Twitter for Mac and iPhone. Brichter has gained notoriety for his unique and clever user interface work on both Tweetie and later his word game Letterpress.
Now it looks like he’ll be working on bringing some of his design expertise to Facebook Home, perhaps in a capacity as a consultant helping to refine its user interface.
Really excited to have @lorenb helping my team out at Facebook.
