How bad of a job the UX people at Twitter are doing, that we have to come up with apps like this to read the feed!

This looks really cool. I wish they were flexible about organizing our feed.

Twitter's goal with their UX is probably to maximize "engagement" rather than "usefulness".
Twitter has probably too many users now to be able to create a single UI that would please everyone. It is sad that they have crippled the API for newcomers and forced the look and feel on the old indie clients.
