TweetDeck v0.21.5
Since this is a point release, rather than a full new version, it contains mainly minor functionality updates and bug fixes but there are one or two interesting new features:
- you can now twitter to a global audience with the ability to translate tweets you've received and written into most languages
- for those interested in monitoring stock information and chatter you can now turn your TweetDeck into a "StockTwits terminal" with the introduction of 5 StockTwits columns
- get your tweets out to those who are not on twitter by emailing them from TweetDeck
- for those times when I need to communicate something to all the open TweetDecks there is now a built-in messaging system
Rather than explaining everything in great detail, below is a video walkthrough of the main functionality. There is a full changelog at the bottom of this post.
Your TweetDeck will auto-update when the release is available or you can get it directly from here if you already have AIR installed:
I've also been working on the next full release which should be ready soon and is a real upgrade to the existing version with particular emphasis on memory usage, multiple accounts & synchronisation amongst a whole host of other new features.
If you have any comments or questions please do let me know.
