That would be very helpful!

Your first point would definitely be great - Groups.

Follows with meta data would be great also - like I know I want to find
someone I followed 2 weeks ago.

Not sure why you can browse so much faster on your T-1 line - perhaps its
just a slowness issue.

I think the final point is just a matter of typing in someones name and they
will show up. It could be the last people you followed.

Thanks for making these suggestions!

It would be very cool to have a " special peeps" timeline other that just having replies and DMs. Now that I'm following so many peeps, I miss some of my favs until I go and look at their tweets page.

How about a " sort/search" feature on your following and followers pages? By alpha-name as mentioned previously, by following back, by date started following, maybe even just a find by name search instead of going through all the pages by alpha.

Another idea is something I can use at work on a T-1 line but not at home on a DSL for some reason, when on T-1, I can look through my follows and it gives me an option to DM each person who is following me back. At home on DSL I have to go to that person's indiv. page to see if I can DM them.

One other oddity, what determines who shows up each time I go to my pull down menu in send DM area? It is only ever a partial list of who is following me back. Even peeps who I know are following me don't show up there. It's very random, but a fix for that would be awesome.

thanks for everything GREAT ab Twitter btw! LOVE IT!

How about spell check, and alphabetical listing for your followers, so you can find one when you want to look them up to write to them!

Thanks for the follow up. I would love to checkout the client when it goes
into beta. I appreciate that someone is rounding up all the "requests" for
Twitter and doing something about it. I would love to cover it here once it
is finished too.

Thanks for this post, it was very usefull to me.
We are currently working on a client for twitter, that would actually have the most features listed here. If you have some spare time please follow "TwittPulse" or drop me an e-mail to twittpulse (a) gmail.com so I can share some productions designs and see if we get everything right.

Hi Angela,

I feel your pain. I am not sure of such a feature, but I am sure your
comment is not alone. Hopefully this will get fixed soon. I know there are
multiple accounts that rarely get used and bog down the search system...

I want to be able to sort people in the search function by how recently they have tweeted. Its crap that I have to look through pages and pages of people with a certain interest to find someone that has updated in the past month or so. I don't want to slog through all of the people that started an account a year or more ago, tweeted once (or never) and left the site. Its just stupid, and a basic function that is so glaringly missing. What is up with that? Am I just blind and don't see some button right in front of my face? If so, please tell me where it is.

Twhirl is one of the best AIR programs I have seen. Not that there are that
many:) but it is definitely work a look and definitely worth it for Twitter
power users.

Add this to the list...
