subbob, I've been looking for precisely the functionality that you describe, and I could not find it anywhere else yet. At first I thought that tweetdeck would logically behave this way, but it gets frustrating very quickly that it does not. And I don't even have that many followers - I have no clue how folks with 1000s of followers do it. If you develop this, please let us know, I'm sure a lot of people would like to use it. In fact, you can contact me via twitter: @kubastolarski :) thx for thinking of this!
