Yes that’s correct I’m leaving my position as front end architect for Nokia Music and heading off down to London town to join the TweetDeck team.

If your not sure what TweetDeck is then where have you been?!

I have known Iain for a few years now and have been really impressed by what he has achieved with TweetDeck. So when the offer came to join the team how could I refuse, oh and I get to work at the ‘bat cave’!.

Having been involved in the Flash and Flex community for a number of years and more recently with Adobe AIR as a Community Expert it’s going to be great working with these technologies on a daily basis.

Combining my knowledge of UI, UX and development with my recent mobile device experience I really feel that we can take the TweetDeck proposition to new heights across multiple platforms reaching to and connecting people world wide. It’s an exciting time.

I’m sure I will see some of you around London town and might even pop along to some of the London Flash community meetups.

The latest release of TweetDeck and the TweetDeck Directory are fantastic if your not using Tweetdeck then get it. There really is no better way of keeping track of your social connections across Twitter, Facebook, MySpace and more.

As you can imagine things have been a little busy of late, but I’ll still be running the Adobe AIR website RefreshingApps and speaking at more conferences and community events. Don’t forget to follow me @jmwhittaker.
