Only caveat is you have to get your friends to join #groupname... you can't arbitrarily say your friend Joe is a member of both #coworkers and #friends... he has to join those groups.

That may be really obvious, but getting everyone you know to self-categorize for your convenience can be a challenge. Being able to label someone for your own purposes is much easier.

If you explicitly had that need, I feel like a mailing list could serve the same purpose. That being said, I feel like you could set up something to email-blast a group of people with your latest links from twitter for that group.
