iPad slidable panel control like twitter

Question

What would be the mechanism behind twitter iPad application? I feel its having split viewcontroller, viewcontrollers with animation and gesture controls, or there may be scrollviews for endless scrolling. How can I develop same UI for my application?

Yep, that's a great one, I'm glad you mentioned it because I was returning to update my answer to redirect to your work. There's a few good forks of the project too. There's one in particular that adds icons to the cells/"tabs". Right now, I'm trying to work out how to build in persistence of the view hierarchy. – Claudicant

@Martin i guess site is under maintenance. anyways you can go directly to github link here github.com/raweng/StackScrollView – Fiji

Matt Gammell ... He did a draggable split view. Its the closest i can think of may be configurable to emulate that http://github.com/mattgemmell/MGSplitViewController

I believe it is just a scroll view with enabled paging, that moves it's subviews on scrollViewDidScroll, does some additional animation in scrollViewDidEndScrollingAnimation method and with some other slick and sexy things :)
