I was thinking about similar service for emails/news/forums/social networks. Main idea the same - slow updates.

For news and forum threads you might want to check out Fraidycat. Its a browser extension that handles your feeds (rss and some others). You can categorize feeds by importance (real-time, frequent, occasional, etc) and it updates the main page accordingly.

Fraidycat is really cool. I used it a bit. Have a twitter account already, but would probably have kept using fraidycat if I didn't have one.
