SnapTwitter is a digest service for twitter. Many people can't read tweets as they are posted (think: people behind corporate firewalls that block twitter). SnapTwitter would collect feeds on a periodic basis (daily, weekly, every-three-days, etc) and send them to a user via email. Yeah, I know that twitter is real-time, but some times I can't or don't want to read tweets as they are posted to the web. I've often wished to have a summarized version of say @zeldman 's tweets. Some of the stuff he posts is important, but not so important that it should interrupt my workday. BTW - i want to actually build this and haven't seen any similar service (links welcome js65536@gmail.com)
