TweetDeck Launches New Features And An iPhone App

Posted in Blogging,Communication,reviews,Software by Joe Tech on the June 16th, 2009

Tweetdeck has been my desktop Twitter application for some time now. Today, I started seeing tweets about a new version coming out and an iPhone version coming soon as well. I was skeptical about another iPhone Twitter application being able to get me away from Tweetie… especially after having paid for Twittelator and then paying again for Tweetie when I liked it more. Honestly, I cringed a bit at the idea that Tweetdeck for the iPhone might be even better and I’d have to shell out another five or ten bucks. Instead, I was met with a best case scenario. Not only is the desktop version loaded up with some very cool new features, but the iPhone app is just as cool and useful and it’s FREE. Sorry, Tweetie, but you’re getting kicked to page five of my apps like Twittelator so I can put TweetDeck on page one.

TweetDeck

Notable new features in the desktop app:
Multiple accounts – We’ve been waiting for this for a while. Finally, I can add multiple accounts very easily. Not only that, but I can send a single tweet from all or just a couple of my accounts. Just make sure you unselect all the accounts when you’re done.
Sync and Backup – Now you can sync and back up your settings. This is handy because now my TweetDeck at home will finally match my office TweetDeck.
Twitscoop and Local – Keep more on the Twitter pulse with local search and trending topics
Spam reporting – Another highly requested feature, you can finally report spam easily right from the app.

Notable features in the iPhone app:
Multiple accounts – Manage all your accounts at once
Multiple columns – So far, I have about 8!
Updating – Continuously updates between your desktop and iPhone.

More than anything, the two things that stand out for me are the UI and the multiple account approach. The UI is just smooth and easy… What else can I say. The Multiple accounts are handled by adding them and then just adding the columns for the information you want displayed This means I never have to switch accounts like I had to in Tweetie and that’s a big bonus to me.

Great job, TweetDeck!
