Like it but it’s not compelling enough to make me change from a third-party app on the desktop. I use TweetDeck. (Love the Android app as I mentioned earlier.)

Liking the new TweetDeck then?
+Sam Hilary I use the TweetDeck desktop app, no changes to that (yet). I think you're referring to TweetDeck Chrome? don't use that.
+Neville Hobson Ah yes I am. It's very cool and fits with the new Twitter image very nicely. Hopefully they'll bring that design to the desktop version soon.
That's me on the top there.
+James Cridland every time I do a screenshot, there you are ;)
Just installed Tweetdeck 1.0, while it has some improvements (e.g. from the looks of it t.co integration) it also has lots (and I mean lots) of disadvantages. Among the main ones are:
– minimize to tray is gone
– can't adjust column width
– therefore can't fit five columns on my screen any more
– doesn't seem to be an Air app any more. I had to manually uninstall the previous version and remove/relink the shortcuts
– generally setup options dramatically reduced
+Armin Grewe that's very interesting, Armin. I just saw that TweetDeck's website has totally changed since I checked in there an hour ago. New TweetDeck Windows app. Not AIR, you're right, the installer is a Windows .msi file. Will try it out, notwithstanding your initial bad impressions ;)
