for most people tweeting a link to your blog post is going to get WAY fewer eyeballs on the info you want to convey than you would have if you just put the text directly in twitter.

there's a big difference in how they're consumed. There is still value in blog posts, but sometimes a twitter thread is a web better choice if you want people to see / interact with what you have to say.

Also, each separate tweet will now have its own distinct discussion threads instead of everything being mixed into one. Certain tweets can be quote retweeted and included in other threads, making exploration even easier.

However, it can also be argued this makes following the thread and the generated conversation cumbersome and confusing.

Good point! Here is an interesting tool [0] for this purpose, but it's not ideal for back-and-forth discussion . A step in the right direction though.

This doesn't work though. Either stuff is taken out of context or you have to read the whole tweet thread for the context...
