Sigh…I just finished creating a video on how to work with TweetDeck a couple weeks ago and what do you know? Out comes a new version with some really cool features to add to the already impressive list of features. But some of those features are things that I’ve been wanting TweetDeck to do for awhile…so I’m not too upset. 
Here’s what’s new in this version of TweetDeck (0.26.2)
- You can now administrate multiple accounts within TweetDeck. I’ve been using HootSuite in order to do this up until now…so it’s really great that I don’t have to leave TweetDeck in order to see what’s going on in my other accounts.
- You can now create a TweetDeck account that will allow you to syncronize and backup your columns between multiple computers. This is really useful if you have TweetDeck on say your laptop and on your desktop and want to make sure that any columns or searches that you created on one machine matches on the other.
- There’s also a handy Twitter spam button that can eliminate spam tweets and reports the miscreant to Twitter.
So, if you’re a Twitter user and you haven’t tried Twitter yet, now’s a great time to do so. You can download Twitter for free by visiting the TweetDeck site.
…and now, I’m going to update my TweetDeck video.

Tweetdeck is ok, but I discovered PeopleBrowsr (http://www.peoplebrowsr.com/) a while ago and will never go back to Tweetdeck. Because PeopleBrowsr is browser based I don’t have to install anything extra, can use it on any computer with a decent web browser and the setting all go with me. It is what Tweetdeck needs to become if they want to compete IMHO.
