TweetDeck hasn't always been the easiest option for managing several social media accounts. Recently, though, Twitter has made some improvements that might just be enough to make you want to take a second look.

Twitter on Wednesday released an update to TweetDeck, its wholly owned app for managing multiple Twitter and Facebook timelines. The TweetDeck update—which is available for Mac, Windows, Chrome, and Web-based users—adds a handful of features, sports a mostly optional redesign, and introduces a few extra personalization options.

TweetDeck has long employed a darker interface, and it gets cleaned up a bit in the latest release of the app. But the app is now also ready to try its lighter side, with a new theme that pits dark text on a light background. Newly available for both themes is an option to adjust your font size.

In announcing the updates on its blog Wednesday, Twitter also highlighted various other improvements made to the app over the past year, including easier navigation with the new column navigator, list management, and profile improvements.
