Whilst there's an element of truth in your statement (just about all of the prominent tech bloggers remain prominent by stirring up drama), lots of people have been saying similar things for a long time. Ad hominem attacks don't change the fact that the message is right. You could start here : http://adactio.com/journal/1357 . I think we all understand, however, that the twitter engineering team first needed to make twitter stable before they could add features like this one. Now that they've largely done that, it appears they're responding to demand for features like this one, which is great news. Mark
