Full marks to Twitter for making everything that little bit slicker with the latest incarnation. It’s additionally handy for getting the search option up quickly, if you’re on the lookout for something in particular. If you’re prolific on Twitter this can be a real boon, allowing you to speed up your workflow. The other natty feature worth mentioned is the keyboard shortcuts option. In the same way as the other columns, you can drag and drop this in amongst the others as and when you need it. It's a great addition, particularly if you have your own content that makes it to the list. Lookout too, for the new ‘Trending’ option, which allows you to add another column that delivers all of the latest developments, dynamically and as they happen. Thankfully, TweetDeck can now be tweaked and fine-tuned within the interface so that you can better manage activities without getting too tied up in knots. The latter is really useful if you’re following the progress of a particular campaign, although can prove quite challenging if you have several things going on at once. In other words, this means you can handle tweets, messages and notifications with ease, as well as keeping tabs on trending hashtags. The fact that there’s a one-stop dashboard also makes management of tasks much more streamlined. For example, Twitter now lets you filter messages much more effectively no matter how many followers you have.

In terms of features, these have been shaped nicely over the last few years so that it is now possible to do a lot more than in previous incarnations of TweetDeck. It does, of course, also work brilliantly within the realms of an iPhone or Android app, meaning that it can be a powerful tool when you’re on the go. Being that TweetDeck is now owned by Twitter means that all of the features and functions are designed to offer a seamless experience for users, which is by and large exactly what to you get once you’ve signed up. Tweet Deck is, in essence, a social media dashboard application, which lets anyone manage their tweets and associated interaction within the convenience of a web browser. That’s especially so if you’ve got lots of columns activated. This gives it extensive appeal if you’re a Twitter aficionado, though it does also make the app become rather busy than it already is. Further expanding that appeal is the ability to add any other Twitter accounts if you have them, or as they are created.
