Tweetdeck Notifications!

2010-03-21
hey what's up guys it's Marcus Brownlee here from mkbhd and welcome to another high-definition video and welcome to the first in a video series that will premiere once a month that will basically discuss whether you agree or disagree so for this first episode we're going to keep it relatively simple and what I have to talk about with you guys today is a TweetDeck feature request for those of you who don't know TweetDeck is a very popular twitter client for those of you tweeters out there who don't want to go to the actual twitter.com to post a message I can also get notifications for their replies and direct messages etc the one thing about tweet deck that I don't like is the actual notification sound itself now some of you may actually like it but I do know a couple of people who actually stopped using tweet deck because of that annoying notification sound and I was actually one of those people who switched to Seesmic for Windows just to get away from it for a while now tooth tech would be happy to know that I came back to their soft ward because of a few missing features and other twitter clients but I've been constantly looking for a way since then to change the notification sound into E deck so this is the closest that I got pardon the background I actually went into the program files for tweet deck now there are a lot of things that can go wrong when you go into the Program Files of a program and change things that have been designated to do certain things I figured it was it was worth the shot and if it didn't work I would just go ahead and uninstall and reinstall tweet deck so I ducked revues Program Files and I was eventually able to find that sound which is called ping deep in the Program Files of tweet deck I wasn't found my own different notification sound from destroyed Twitter one of those many Twitter clients I reverted to while avoiding the sound and dragged it right into tweet deck unfortunately replacing it with a different sound even though it was named ping as well also broke tweet deck so the act of digging into the program follows a tweet deck and finding the notification sound and replacing it with your own notification sound downloaded from the internet turns out to be completely useless and you'll have to reinstall tweet deck for this reason the topic of today's episode of do you agree or disagree is heck does tweetdeck need a way to integrate its own changing notification sounds in my opinion yes even if all this in the Program Files is successful the average user isn't going to want to do all that to change that but yet again the average user does want to be able to customize their notification sound so go ahead and leave a comment down below what Twitter client do you use and if you use TweetDeck do you like the notification sound or do you like the notification sound over the Twitter client that you use now I'm interested to see your responses maybe I'll switch clients again anyway thanks for watching this episode and I'm looking forward to your comments again thanks for watching guys peace
