Welcome to the third of special, longer-than-10-minute reviews from Bird House Rules and in-studio guest Nifty Tech Blog. This time, we get honest and frank over TweetDeck for the iPad. Continuing with an “Old Friends Revisited” theme, Doc Coleman and I air our lack of enthusiasm for the 800-pound gorilla’s latest incarnation.

This episode is part of the Bird House Rules-Nifty Tech Blog miniseries on iPad clients for Twitter. For the next few months, we will be featuring reviews on iPad clients, some of which you might be seeing in the Second Editions of All a Twitter and Sams Teach Yourself Twitter in Ten Minutes!

Hey, everyone! It’s another Bird House Rules, and before anyone gives me heat, I went over my ten-minute limit in this episode…by twenty-two seconds. Get over it!

When you hear why I went over, you may understand. You see, I had a problem on Twitter when I unfollowed someone in my feed. Within 24 hours, I received this tweet…

(@TrueConservative) We auto-unfollowed @TeeMonster who stopped following you. www.thew.in twitter tools sponsored by ((insert sponsor here))

…and discovered Thew.in Twitter Tools.

Now those of you wondered why I was so mad last Friday know why. Better grab a flack jacket and a helmet. I’m wound up and I go, go, go, go….
