This is an excellent example of how not to communicate. There's *no effective way* to "follow" this "thread" -- it's a mass of jumbled spaghetti. And the 140 character limit means that items which could be a paragraph aren't given enough attention to do much more than lead the recipient off on another tangent.
If this is the future of human communication, I'll be putting my headphones on now, thanks.
Maybe there's room for an application that "follows threads" and recreates them into a more readable coherent block.
