It'd be amazing if a 3rd party could building something for that.
That is another huge annoyance I have, some of my followers do nothing but tweet every 30-45 seconds when they are attending talks and events. Maybe it is just me, but there is now way I could actually pay attention to what was being said if I was trying to tweet it all at the same time.

You should kick that off next week after they're back from their week off so it'll make a bigger splash!

Man, I heart Norm MacDonald, but him in Twitter form is pretty rough. He sure likes his math. And tweeting several times per hour. Finally had to unfollow him, he was flooding my twitter page.

Nice, he's great on talk shows. I dunno, I'm just not a fan of his twitter form. It's just not the same without that voice.

Twitter updated their iPhone app today. They got rid of the trending quickbar!

I didn't mind the dickbar once it didn't cover my newsfeed when I logged in.

I am @crazybaconlegs and I currently have a built-in audience of exactly 0.

I have tweeted 8 times to myself. If some of you people follow my thing, that will multiply dramatically. I just might even follow you in return!

Right now, my feed is like me screaming in an empty room, and that just hits too close to home.

Hey thanks for following me guys! I hope my ramblings will inspire you, instead of just making my neighbors nervous.

Don't know why but having an NHL player retweet your tweet makes you feel happy.

alright, I feel dumb. Has anyone else had a problem with Twitter getting stuck on the old version? I have tried clearing all of my browser history but I am still stuck on the old version, and when I click on the "Switch to New Twitter" link, nothing happens.

I am using Firefox 4.

Just signed up to follow some sports feeds. Still not really sure on the whole twitter thingy.

@kunkstyle

I have yet to post anything, but apparently have 1 follower and not sure who she is or how she got there. If I can get a decent international data package I might have to post some drunken ramblings from vegas.

I guess I'll have to add some CP'ers and hope I can figure out the point of this thing.
