We’re fans of the computer version of TweetDeck, which provides quick, multi-column, and multi-account access to Twitter timelines, mentions, and direct messages; even the stripped-down iPhone and iPod touch version contained some neat interface tricks. Now there’s an iPad one called TweetDeck for iPad (Free) that includes most of the original’s tricks, once again at no charge to the user.
Though its UI is once again a little different, this time calling up a notepad and big on-screen keyboard as overlays on top of its Twitter columns, it provides a lot of control over the columns you see, lets you flick to scroll through columns stored off-screen, and includes tools to let you share photos, compress URLs, and geotag your tweets. Until Twitter releases its official application for the iPad, which will apparently be based on the Tweetie applications for Mac and iPhone, we’ll likely be using this app—if TweetDeck continues to evolve, who knows, it may even wind up being the best on this platform.
