Poll: Do You Ever Get Frustrated By Twitter?

Based on a conversation I was having last night some friends about Twitter and what frustrated us about it, I decided it could be interesting poll other Twitterini’s opinions on their frustration levels and reasons for that feeling. Even if you are a heavy user and lover of the service, there may be some areas it can improve.

I wish there were a way to thread replies. Often I receive a reply to an older Tweet that I have to research to know what they were replying to. For the same reason, I seldon reply to a Tweet that's older than 24 hours.

I can't agree more with Andrew's comment "Conversations are not threaded, there's no built in way to get @myname notifications." I have some good Japanese friends I met online, (and I am a Japanese) but it took a several years to be emotionally connected with them online.

If there is a way to find people by their name vs. their twitter name I don't know what it is!

Mmh, why not. Using the "Find people" option is great if you do maintain well your address book (I think it's very important nowadays).

Still playing with Twitter, trying to figure out whether it's a fun way for me to write humorous observations on life as an invisible Gaijin here or whether my clients should be investing time/resource in it beyond defensive PR. That being said, I've "met" the most interesting people via Twitter.

Well, Andrew, you know I created this poll because of our rant last night at Hobgoblins! I'm interested in what others will say as well on the topic. I'm sure there are lots of issues I haven't yet identified. Have a good day!

Conversations are not threaded, there's no built in way to get @myname notifications, SMS doesn't work for Japan, there's no easy way to reply or direct message people from email.

Don't really care about SMS, this is so "passé" :-) Threading is a must, a groups (room), grouping (creating your own stream of people to follow, Twitterlator on the iPhone has implemented this, but it multiplies the API calls), there should be a third reply way: @ goes public, DM between people interconnected and another option, like PM (private message) between people not connected (maybe with day limit to avoid spam).
OAuth should be also implemented to avoid giving password to external twitter services.

Was great talking about this and other social media strategies with you two yesterday, Andrew and Lance.
