Twitter Client Faceoff: TweetDeck vs. Seesmic Desktop
November 2nd, 2009
It’s time to kick off this week’s Faceoff challenge, wherein we pit two web services or software packages against each other in a knock-down, drag-out fight.
Last week, Windows 7 went the distance to narrowly defeat Apple’s OS X 10.6, Snow Leopard operating system. This week, with Twitter Lists on the brain, it seemed like a great time to put two fantastic Twitter desktop clients in a head-to-head matchup.
Seesmic Desktop may have already added support for lists, but TweetDeck promises they’ll release support soon as well. Both apps have been continually updated and well-supported, so much so we had to do a rematch of our original head-to-head comparison just a few short months later.
So without further ado, let’s hear what you have to say. Head on down to vote in the official poll, and don’t forget to also leave a comment and let us know why you picked the winner you did. Be sure to get your votes in by noon PST this coming Friday, November 6!
