Turning inner space into outer space

Let there be light on TweetDeck

For Twitter-holics following a slew of accounts, lists and searches, TweetDeck is a great app. You can monitor each stream in its own column, all in a big-ass window spreading across your screen.

TweetDeck was originally an independent app, but it was bought out by Twitter and appeared to be languishing — but no more. Version 2.0 is out and should make a lot of users happy.

The first thing I did was switch from dark to light. What a relief for my eyes! I’m also playing with the setting that allows you to bump up the font size. I’m not sure if this is new, but you can also make the columns narrower — handy if you’ve got TweetDeck crammed into a laptop with a small screen.
