Boxcar 2.2 Push Notifications for iPhone Hits App Store
Boxcar just let us know Boxcar 2.2 [Free/in-app purchases - iTunes link] has been served up piping hot to the iPhone (and iPod touch) App Store. Here are some highlights:
- Push for RSS feeds (powered by Superfeedr)
- Push for Growl notifications
- Now supports TweetDeck and Natsulion
- Toggle off hidden Facebook and Twitter re-tweet API notifications

The Boxcar competition (Letmeknow) has many more features and has become one of my favorite apps. As a systems engineer the ping subscription let me know when any of my servers go down. Priceless!
