nice job. I'm surprised however that people are willing to pay for this type of service. Makes you wonder if people would be willing to pay in order to use twitter

"... nice job. I'm surprised however that people are willing to pay for this type of service. ..."
It appears to be a toy product but if you consider:
* As a twitter subscriber, reading multiple posts are a pain to read. This is a real problem for users and their subscribers.
* Twitter has a lot of potential users/businesses looking for ways to automate etiquette.
* Twitter has a lot of users
The real problem for any developer here if I get a product with a lot of users, will Twitter just roll out the same product or will they pay enough?
