I don't think I browse twitter well. I alternate between your two choices, depending on how long since I last checked twitter.
I would like something like 'circles for twitter' so that I could check close friends and family tweets quickly, then kill time with lower priority/higher volume users if I want to.
I never used Megaupload. Never saw their site before the takedown notice went up, so I don't know anything about their business model. But where did they get $50M in assets? I have seen the number $175M as a subscription revenue number, but how did they rake in that much in subscriptions? That's a huge number.
rickmatt, I see you are a new user; please ignore the condescending tone in the replies from wmf and publicus. I thought I would never say this: the comments section on the linked Ars article is more helpful than HN (and much less condescending).
Despite everything pg has tried to keep September from arriving, the September that never ends has arrived. And by now it should be obvious why the eternal September is here. It's because the problem is _people_ and this is one problem technology will never solve.
