The guys from 12seconds.tv have released 12cast. Not only is their first native iPhone app, it also makes recording and uploading videos via 12seconds onto Twitter without any hassles. All you need to do is launch the app and start recording your video. You don’t even need to have a 12seconds account for this to work — you can just login using Twitter.
To celebrate the launch, they are holding a contest. Anyone on Twitter can use the #12cast hashtag to win a year’s worth of data service for their iPhone, completely covered by 12seconds. Check it out!
