As if your Twitter client did enough for you already by updating your tweets every couple of seconds, TweetDeck and Echofon have unleashed a new application allowing you to receive tweets in real time.

From first hand experience the technology put behind these clients have impressed me very much, no other Twitter client can give you tweets as fast as both the Pro verision of Echofon and the Beta version of TweetDeck – User Stream Preview.

The tweets come in so fast that not even TweetDeck itself can’t keep up with the notifications. Now I repeat that TweetDeck’s real time version is only allowed for up to 5,000 people to be able to use it, fortunately me and a couple of friends on Twitter got a hold of the beta.

Echofon’s Pro version is already using this technology only you have to pay $20 USD in order to be able to use it. I strongly recommend that you wait for when TweetDeck releases it to the public, if you cannot wait and you happen to have a Mac, more power to you if you buy the $20 app.

Other than that the new TweetDeck might make you think about getting another monitor just for TweetDeck itself. It looks really neat just watching all of those tweets show up there as soon as a Twitter user hits Enter.

The interface has not changed a bit since the newest version of TweetDeck and it still has those same great features like URL shortening and picture uploading right from the client.

Besides the TweetDeck client not being available readily I give the new TweetDeck a 4 out of 5. That might change when the finished product comes out, I am really impressed so far.
