"Only 1 star until retweet bug is fixed"
Version: TweetDeck 2.1
Pros
Clean interface, multi-column list view keeps tweets organized
Cons
Before Twitter bought this, it was great. After, Twitter "enhanced" it and broke the block retweet function. Still broken for many, many months with no fix.
Summary
Track down the old version and stick with it. Some mildly useful updates don't make up for breaking a product, then not fixing it

"What, if anything, were they thinking?"
Version: TweetDeck 1.5.2
Pros
It didn't crash or lock my PC.
Cons
I was hoping to find something for my PC as convenient and useful as Tweetcaster is on my Kindle Fire. So, I downloaded and tried Tweetdeck. One thing after another seemed to not work. Things that would logically be included weren't. The screen display is oversized and unmanageable.
The best software is logical and intuitive because the programmer(s) anticipated what capabilities you would want and when, and how you would use them. Tweetdeck, unfortunately, took me back to the bad old days of clunky, illogical software that doesn't justify the space it takes up or the time it takes to install and cope with its quirks and inadequacies.
After installing Tweetdeck, it was such a disappointment I thought maybe there had been a hiccup during installation. I uninstalled it, rebooted and reinstalled. I then gave the program another try. After thinking about it overnight, I uninstalled it.Summary
If Tweetdeck's programmers happen by and read this, I challenge them to try Tweetcaster on a Kindle Fire or other Android tablet. Then, scrap what you've done and start over.

"Created an account here just to give it 1 star"
Version: TweetDeck 1.4
Pros
None. Not one. Twitter took the best twitter client & turned it into the worst.
Ability to see your followers tweets to other twitter members you don't follow? Gone!
Spellchecker? Gone!
Deck.ly? Gone!
Post update on enter? Gone!Cons
Everything! I can't even get it to snap to half screen in windows 7. or even manually adjust it to fit half screen. No matter what you do it'll take up over half the screen. You can't right click. Yup. Try it! *Right click* nothing happens!
Summary
Every client that comes out that is better than the official twitter POS, twitter either gets it shut down, or buys it. & in the case of Tweetdeck they bought it & ruined it. You suck Twitter! Screw you!

"Not as good as the original TweetDeck BUT"
Version: TweetDeck 1.4
Pros
does a fantastic job on monitoring multiple list
marks tweets that you retweet so that you don't waste time trying to retweet.
It is the easiest on system resources that I have found 5 stars on this.
It does not appear to be limited on API calls like other programsCons
You have to type in each tweet you can NOT copy and past.
It will not accept Facebook settings just gives you a blank screen.
has a dismal color schemeSummary
Twitters TweetDeck does not yet have the cool of the original TweetDeck. But it does have more features that any of the other programs that I checked And the fact that it uses less system resource that any of the other big name programs that I checked is a biggie. In these days when the it takes all you have to run the anti virus programs

"Don't download"
Version: TweetDeck 1.4
Pros
Everything good about Tweetdeck has been stripped away.
Cons
Everything. No spellcheck, wasted screen space, two clicks to see someones tweets. Everything.

"My favorite Twitter client... ruined"
Version: TweetDeck 1.2
Pros
-No longer uses Adobe AIR so it uses less system resources.
-Doesn't replace the old version so I can still use it.Cons
-Huge waste of screen space. Why can't there be a scrollbar like there used to be? Why are we forced to 3 columns with a giant blank space on the side?
-Most social network integrations removed.
-Forced to use Twitter's new retweets.
-Simply an HTML5 app wrapped in a window (including the notifications). Developers were ridiculously lazy here.
-Managing multiple accounts is a mess.
-Nearly no settings to customize.
-No auto completion of usernames.Summary
TweetDeck 0.38.2 and earlier was my favorite Twitter client. With this new release, Twitter has destroyed it. Fortunately, it installs independently from the old AIR version, so I can still run the old version (which I currently still do).
The Cons list goes on and on. Twitter clearly doesn't want people to use other apps besides their website.
If you want to use TweetDeck, find the old AIR version somewhere. Many non-official sources are still offering it. It currently still works until Twitter does something to their API to break it (and I wouldn't be surprised if they do something to break the old TweetDeck).
So thank you Twitter, for ruining one of the best Twitter apps ever created. -
"worst ever now useless"
Version: TweetDeck 1.2
Pros
none at all anymore
Cons
they have successfully made Tweetdeck now worth not using.
-
"It's horrible."
Version: TweetDeck 1.2
Pros
Pros? Pros? Pros? We got no stinking pros!
Cons
Twitter removed the features that made Tweetdeck awesome. It's now useless.
-
"Version 1.2? Bring back 0.38!"
Version: TweetDeck 1.2
Pros
None. Absolutely None.
Cons
Everything decent about Tweetdeck has been rendered unusable. I've tried to persevere with 1.2 for a month, but it's like since being taken over by the Twitter company, Tweetdeck have deliberately 'bricked' their software. Everything about it is awful compared to version 0.38, which I'm now going back to.
Summary
Bring back version 0.38!

"Some idiot actually thought this was a good idea."
Version: TweetDeck 1.2
Pros
-It won't give you a virus.
-Decreases the likelihood of getting fired from work for using Twitter, since it sucks so hard that you won't spend any time on it.
-Helps prevent drunk tweeting, because it's so ridiculous to use that it's a challenge to do while sober, let alone while drunk.
-Uses ethanol.Cons
-Downloads successfully, which means you are able to actually use the piece of crap.
-Anonymous hasn't crashed the site yet.
-Product is tested on animals. This may explain why there aren't as many dogs in my neighborhood, since most of them, after being subjected to the mind-numbing ***-ness that is Tweetdeck 1.2, immediately ran onto the interstate.
-Causes anal leakage.Summary
If old Tweetdeck was a 70" hi-def LCD Internet-capable flat panel TV, complete with smartphone-compatible all-in-one remote and user-defined programming, then Tweetdeck 1.2 is a black-and-white 13" tube tv that shows "The Paul Reiser Show" in a constant loop, and shocks you if you try to change the channel. It sucks out loud. Captured war criminals were initially allowed to use Tweetdeck 1.2 while in prison, but this practice was quickly stopped, as the rules of the Geneva Convention prohibit inhumane treatment of prisoners.
