Here’s an analysis and comparison of Tweetdeck and Seesmic Desktop. Being in Preview Mode, Seesmic is still buggy and lacks some core functions but I imagine it would be solved soon. Seesmic obviously modeled it after Tweetdeck and took the useful features while solving some of the flaws, so it does have an unfair advantage. Yes, there are only so many ways you can display columns of information, but even the buttons on the user icons are almost identical. One thing that you will notice is the similarities between Tweetdeck and Seesmic Desktop. They’re in “Preview Mode” right now and users simply need to signup to Team Seesmic to get a free preview download. I’ve always had a decent amount of respect for Loic Le Meur, and I trust in his abilities to launch something that a person like me would want to use.
In recent weeks, I learned that Seesmic (owns and Twirl) is about to launch a new Twitter Desktop Client called Seesmic Desktop. Here’s also a list of some cool Twitter Apps that I compiled. In case you are curious, I usually use a combination of Hootsuite and TweetLater to manage client accounts. Most entrepreneurs have a personal and a company account anyway, and a tool to manage all accounts would be very helpful.

As a professional who runs various Twitter campaigns for companies, I often find TweetDeck not very helpful outside of running my own personal account.

However, Tweetdeck’s biggest flaw to me actually lies in the inability to handle multiple accounts. Right when I was being frustrated with this unintuitive way of adding friends to groups, I saw mention the same frustration about the Tweetdeck group function: Yes, the Group function is actually one of the most useful functions around, but creating a new group and adding new friends to it is a PAIN. What got me REALLY annoyed is the Group Function of TweetDeck. After they did the Facebook integration (which is great), it was noticeably eating more memory than before. However, recently I have become a bit more frustrated with Tweetdeck.
#Tweetdeck lagging how to#
Downloading Tweetdeck is also one of the major steps in my post about how to start and fall in love with Twitter.Īs far as I know, TweetDeck is the only Twitter App that raised sizeable funding during the “old days” (like 90 days ago) when people still wondered if Twitter would die any day. I have told quite a plethora of people to download Tweetdeck as soon as they made their first tweet (yes, I do a search on that). Up to this point, I have always been a fan of Tweetdeck.
