I hear you, the timeline thing takes a little getting used to ...

This thing is crazy.

there's no incentive to go back in time to see replies that aren't on the screen. Means that many replies will be missed

oh, and also, the scrolling is too fast. You zoom past and get lost.

Tell me about it. I'm already stresed out. OK, must take Stiva out to check his pee-mail

i'm not used to it yet! but trying desperately to pretend that I'm cool.

I don't miss any tweets. Even with Replies turned off, I just do a Summize Search for "to: gspn" and get all my @ msgs

I do think "Karma" is counter intuitive to the relationship building aspect of things.
