One difference with Squall is that, while the post is an image on Twitter, it lives on as a text post on Squall.io. So you can always follow the link and parse the text there.

Also the images are highly legible. Check out this Squall for example: https://twitter.com/bshyong/status/573557768285732864

aren't you going to have issues like this in the twitter stream, where the top and bottom of the image is lost:

You see the title and a legible paragraph when you're scrolling through a feed of random tweets. Seems superior to any alternative I can think of.

just one more click, and you'll have the entire post in your stream, no redirecting, no extraneous page loads.
