Twitter to close the door on its Windows TweetDeck app

From CNET: The days are numbered for TweetDeck's standalone app for Windows.

On April 15 Twitter will end support for the app, which lets you create a dashboard to manage multiple accounts simultaneously and get a better handle on Twitter when following lots of others. The microblogging site said Thursday that though support for the Windows app will end, you'll still be able to get the same experience from the Web version.

The move is geared toward "enhancing your TweetDeck experience," Amy Zima, a Twitter product manager, wrote in a company blog post. "Nothing is changing about TweetDeck itself, just where you access it from."

Twitter, which acquired TweetDeck in 2011, has in recent years cut back on app support to focus on its Web presence. The San Francisco-based company officially pulled the plug on TweetDeck for Android and iPhone, as well as the Adobe AIR desktop version, in 2013.
