Is twitter, facebook etc not the same as a chat room or im'ing? Do their
website interfaces not appear similar to a chat box? Why are they being
treated different then chatting with someone? Sure status is global, but
shouldn't twitter etc. just appear as contacts in your list? This way you
don't have any of the problems listed here, plus you have a history of what
you've said as well as others, just like when you use the website, or a
chat box.

If you look at these services in this light, the only difference between
them and a chat box is the nice backgrounds(? :D).....
Personally I'm much more curious about how the chat box could look similar
to facebook etc. Because thats the best part about the services,..reading
what other people have to say.
