Yes, and so my point is, this is a masterful approach to pave the way for placing ads there.
The standard way is to place ads and juggle them about until you've figured out where they attract the more clicks. Twitter's way appears to first manufacture a high-interest area (by putting cool twitter stuff there), then, once people are used to seeing nifty stuff there, start selling that nifty space to others.
