I started preferring a timed stints approach of allowing myself access for short periods of time during the day. I also found as my twitter activity grew I found the multi column approach with dynamically updating feed that Tweetdeck offers too much to take in. I believe the tables are starting to turn now twitter is both stable and improving its experience all the time. For such a long time it was the service rather than the interface that was the appeal, allowing the 3rd party clients market to thrive. I always used to use 3rd party apps (mostly Tweetdeck) to access twitter but found myself of late gravitating more towards the web interface as it has gradually improved. At work I use the web UI, on the go I use mobile app, and at home I use the iPad app. I (as I imagine most users do) use a collection of interfaces to access twitter throughout the day and week. As brilliant as twitter is, I hope to highlight how it could be made better and would hope to see some of these features being released over the course of the next few years. Most importantly, it does what its desktop counterparts does-sifts and sorts through all kinds of noise to let you get at your replies, messages, and most relevant search terms quickly.Following the recent Twitter web UI redesign across all its platforms ( new twitter GUI PSD resource we created available to download for free) I thought it a good time to look back and reflect on the still annoying interface niggles & inconsistencies that inhibit an ideal user experience across the board by providing a twitter iOS app and web UI review. The iPhone app does a great job of recreating the multi-column control of TweetDeck through sliding tabs, and offers most of the functionality for reading and posting that other popular apps like Seesmic and TwitterFon. The desktop versions don’t seem to synchronise all your actual app settings, though, so our previously posted migration tip is worth checking out.Īs for the client updates themselves, well, TweetDeck as run on Adobe AIR hasn’t changed all that much, other than allowing for controlling multiple Twitter accounts, which power users will love and may migrate over for. The column synchronisation is a smart move, considering many fans of TweetDeck’s increasingly popular desktop client are likely to try out the iPhone and iPod touch version and not want to have to add in all their columns again.
Windows/Mac/Linux/iPhone: TweetDeck, the Twitter client that helps cut through social noise, has unleashed a clever version of its popular multi-column app for iPhones, as well as made it easy to synchronise columns and work with multiple Twitter accounts.
