I made a Twitter account a while back, just to try. But I really have 
difficulty to keep up with other people's tweets: there is no serious 
threading whatsoever and 80% of the people tweet about entering/leaving 
the train, their meals, etc. As a result, if you have more than a few 
friends, it's impossible to catch up with Twitter, unless you make it a 
hourly activity.
