The micro-blogging platform has already shared some information about the preview version of TweetDeck and it is going to roll it out over invites to people over the next few months to allow them to experience the new version. In the meanwhile, if you need to use TweetDeck, and don’t have an invite, you can use it viw the web browser.

TweetDeck users on Mac were notified of the development via a banner notification on Wednesday. Essentially, the desktop app for TweetDeck on Mac is one of the last to go, Twitter shut down TweetDeck for mobile and Windows PC years ago. So it was only a matter of time before the Mac version was also phased out to make way for the all the new version.

In case you have never used it, TweetDeck is a platform that can be used to monitor multiple feeds on the main screen while also getting real-time information from sources and platforms. TweetDeck is helpful for those who handle multiple accounts on the platform and need to keep a track on all of them realtime. You can also tweet on all these different handles via TweetDeck instead of having to return to the normal Twitter app/page.

The new version of TweetDeck is still being tested so there is no information available yet about when exactly we might see the official release go public.
