I too loved Tweet Deck but had to switch to Hootsuite because 5 different platforms don’t show up on TweetDeck on my PC here in LA. Twitter for iphone, twitter for Blackberry, Ubertwitter, my French feed off an API and one more that escapes me now.

I contacted Mr. Barley and he was gracious enough to write me but he asked me to take screen shots of my Tweet Deck. I didn’t see the purpose if the rogue platforms didn’t show up there!!

So I switched to Hootsuite.

Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you for mentioning the filter feature. I didn’t even know about it and I’ve been using tweetdeck for a while. I can know pay attention to my home stream again, instead of just focusing on my lists. THANK YOU!!

I’m brand new to Twitter – fought against for so long and yet in just over a week I love it. However, while I use Tweetdeck at work (I’m a journalist), I can’t load it on my home PC. I really, really love Tweetdeck and don’t want to even try anything else, though I may have to.
Not being technically-minded, I’m at my wits’ end. The problem seems to be with the latest Adobe Air-whatever, which refuses to load – and then I’m stuck.
If anyone has any useful ideas, I’d appreciate them.

I wish Tweetdeck and Tweetie (Twitter for iPhone now) would somehow merge (yeah I know…) – Tweetie has the smoothest usage (specifically on the iPhone), Tweetdeck has decks and sync options – combined they would make an awesome tool. right now I use Twitter for iPhone and Tweetie on the Mac – can’t see myself using Tweetdeck on the Mac and Twitter for iPhone together (a consistent user experience problem…).
Of course I congratulate both teams on awesome products. please get together guys

We are currently optimizing our twitter blog and twitter tool to be accesible to Iphones and other portable devices. So far we have it set up where anyone can access our software via web at tweetbuddy.net. If you cant access it through your portable device, please let us know so we can install a fix.

Happy twitter marketing!

5. Also I’m hoping tweetdeck adds support for additional social networking sites, such as friendfeed, statusnet, etc…. i.e. all the usual suspects which are supported by ping.fm

I too am a big fan of Tweetdeck, And I applaud the way they listen to their customers, and keep evolving.

I think this is the key to success in today’s world, and they are the masters of it.

As to your intriguing question, what’s next, here’s what I’m looking for:

1. more list management tools so list members can be sorted, and moved or deleted in bulk operations

2. the ability to see from a tweet the tweeter’s status as followed/following & as member of list(s)

3. being able to combine one or more lists or other groupings into a single column

4. being able to filter tweets in or out by list

@Giles, I never thought of it – but boy, would the RSS column feature be sweet – so make that +1
(I currently use feedly, which is great but like so many things you have to ALSO open, it’s out of sight, out of mind too often..)

@Mike, I know from dialog with TD-staff a short while ago that getting control of those seen/unseen tweets is a priority which makes me hope seeing it any time soon. There are numerous reasons for this, one is your problem with keeping desktop and mobile experience sync’ed, another is that of marking a tweet as read in one coloumn and being bothered by reading it again in another even after hitting that Clear seen updates button!

But to sum it up: Great article and TD FTW!

One thing that really bothered me about TD before I switched to echophone was the lack of Growl integration. I like to manage all of my notifications globally within the Growl pref pane. TweetDeck was the only app on my Mac that used it’s own notifications. I also dislike Adobe Air as a middleman junk process. I will be sticking to Echophone for a while
