Tweetdeck says “Ludicrous Speed GO!”
So yesterday Tweetdeck announced an experimental version of their app that would allow you to get your tweets in real-time using the new user streams API from twitter.
And its not only tweets that get the supercharged treatment. Other actions that are relevant to you are also brought immediately to your attention. For example, if someone follows you - WOOSH, it’s there. If someone favourites one of your tweets - BAM, straight into your Mentions. Oh and discovering new people to follow is made a lot easier with the addition of an option to see @replies from your friends to other people that you don’t follow. This is a big change from the standard behaviour where you only see replies to people that you actually follow.
Now it is limited to only 5000 peeps right now and they might already be gone but I would say if your interested go check it out and see if they have some left.
It is experimental so there could be issues. So far everything seems good on my end.
TweetDeck For the iPhone [video]
I dont have an iPhone but thought it was really kool that now you can use and sync up TweetDeck on your iPhone now and one of my followers Chris Harvey (his site) created a little video showing off the app.
Now what makes this video even kooler was he featured my twitter stream for part of the demo so check that out and see this kool new app featuring my lightsabers! 
Good job Chris!
TweetDeck Now Integrates With Facebook
TweetDeck today announced integration with Facebook allowing you view your friends statuses as well as to update your twitter status, your facebook status or both right from the tweetdeck application.
Another feature I found in the upgrade is if one of your facebook friends is online a green dot will appear and by clicking this you can open a chat window right there and chat with your friend on facebook.
Once again another great addition to an awesome application that allows me to keep up with all my twitter friends.
You have two options for getting the update you can either head over and grab the beta or wait a few days till they launch it public. It's upto you! Enjoy!
catch me on the interwebs:
