Tweetdeck has released its Android application to beta. After much anticipation Tweetdeck finally released the Android version of its popular Social networking client in an open beta. Though only a beta the interface shows a lot of polish and the application has possibilites, At this point its missing a few features and its not functional enough for me to switch from my current twitter client. I still think you should get yourself signed up and try it out though as I can’t get enough of the Windows PC client. The Key feature is Native Facebook Notifications, As many of you know Facebook’s integration with Android hasn’t been the most pleasant experience as many people note the biggest issue with the Official Facebook App is its horrible notifications support. You also get All your social services in a single app.
[UPDATE] Tweetdeck has released an update to their open beta application, now with font resize and better mapping http://bit.ly/9mDhmF.
