Twitter adds universal login; will kill TweetDeck Windows appMumbai, Mar 20(AZINS) Twitter is streamlining its user experience for the desktop, adding merged logins to it's various portals. The company announced the update in a blog post a few days ago, which allows users to seamlessly switch between Twitter tools.

To put it simply, Twitter now has a universal login system for the desktop. When you log in to Twitter or Twiiter Analytics, you'll no longer need to log into TweetDeck separately. This makes it easier to jump back and forth between them, a system Google already has across its online properties. This is the latest in a series of TweetDeck optimisations, following TweetDeck Teams, group Direct Messages, and a more robust Search feature added over the past year.

In addition, this means Twitter is killing their standalone TweetDeck App for Windows on April 15. After that, the only way you can access the tool on your desktop is through the web page. TweetDeck's Mac app will stick around, although there's no word on whether Twitter plans to nix that app in the future too.
