TweetDeck is a great app with one major drawback: no support for multiple Twitter accounts. If they added that, I'd probably use TweetDeck permanently. I have been using <a href="http://twitterfox.net/" rel="nofollow">TwitterFox</a> a lot recently. It's an extension for Firefox (which I have open all day anyway), and it's tucked away very tidily right next to FoxMarks and HTML Tidy, etc. in the bottom right of the FF window. TwitterFox has all the standard Twitter features, but the best thing about it is fast-switching between Twitter accounts. It isn't as advanced as TweetDeck (you can't search or follow/unfollow from it), but the multiple accounts support makes it a winner for me. Besides, if you have FF open anyway, it's one click on a user's avatar from within TwitterFox and you're on the twitter site anyway. I like the improvements to TweetDeck you’ve suggested here.
