Someone said that part of Twitter’s success is the ‘ambient intimacy‘ that it conveys. If you find yourself drowning in all that ambience, you might try Twitter For Busy People. Magnificent simplicity. Up to 500 people you follow are represented as thumbnails on a single page; hover over a thumbnail and you see their latest tweet. Click and get their last 25 tweets. The most active are at the top of the page.
The beauty here is in the simplicity. No registration, and if you want to scan through many people you follow you don’t even click/wait. A study in usability, and timely as so many of us seem to be on the verge of drowning in tweets!
