			<description><![CDATA[It is still totally unusable because a user cannot adjust the size of the type. On an iMac, the type is so small it is unreadable.<br>When I emailed the original developer about this critical missing control, he seemed little interested in offering it. WIth this update, TweetDeck continues to snub its nose at those sight impaired that need larger type and those over 45.<br>Twitter’s own client allows users to go up to 18 point, which is fine for me but even that is too small for those who need larger text type.<br>It dumbfounds me that such a simple and basic control has been missing for years!]]></description>
