TweetDeck Gets Funding from Betaworks

Recently I did a post on the best twitter app. Apparently, the app that I felt was the best, TweetDeck, just got angel funding. I am not surprised they got funding because Twitter is growing so fast, but many people (including myself) are questioning the investment. How do they plan to make money? What happens when twitter decides to add these features within twitter.com? During the time I was testing out these twitter apps I was wondering why twitter itself didn’t have all of these features. I guess it is worth the $500,000 gamble for Betaworks.
