When viewing someone's profile, you can see what I presume is their chronological user id. @jack, for example, is #12; @ev is #20. @paulg's recently created account is ~183M, and a brand new account came in at 185M.

For example, mine is feed://twitter.com/statuses/user_timeline/13192.rss
Will someone explain the first sentence? "Are you addicted to Twitter?" What does that mean? How does that happen? What exactly are people getting "addicted" to? I've used Twitter here and there, posted, or used it for a real-time search, but it just seems like retweets of the same articles over and over again, and then just constant regurgitation of the same information ... or tweets about nothing at all. If you're…
It is just like the old chat rooms for some people. They will post 100s of tweets a day, stuff that happened to them, but mainly response to other people. It is an ongoing conversation these people are having over weeks and months. They make friends with some, then lose them.
Lots of people don't use twitter that way, and I don't think it is the best way.
Everyone is raving about the app and I think it introduces some interesting UI/X elements but after playing with it for a few minutes, it just feels cluttered to me. Compare that to both tweetdeck and twitterific which feel great on the iPad...
TweetDeck on iPad is infuriating to use. It's buggy, crashes all the time, doesn't have feature parity in landscape and portrait modes, and is super slow. Yet, I keep using it because multi-column is the killer feature for me. I wish they'd fix it up though.
Wasn't the selling point of the iPad that it was a simple to use platform and device, with everything running fullscreen and without confusing stacks and layers of applications and windows? That it wasn't a "normal" computer?
Amazing how quickly things go full circle these days.

I got started realizing I can follow smart people doing phds, entrepreneurs, hackers etc who are doing things I'm interested in. And occasionally, I can ask them questions.
My followee list has evolved over time when my interests change or when someone gets too noisy.
Maybe I'm just looking at this the wrong way, but the way I'm seeing it they've developed an application with "layers" (or "windows" if you like).

There's no mixing around, and everything's entirely linear. That's different from a windowing system, in which several different things are clamoring for your attention and mixing together.

I just installed it on my iPad and I'm only seeing the old iPhone interface. Anybody else have this problem? EDIT: never mind, I just got the app update. I guess app store updates are not atomic.
Yeah, I was able to get the iPad update by uninstalling the iPhone-only version and reinstalling it, but not through the traditional "Update" tab. Some things start to get strange at the scale of the App Store.
