@paulg Why is that a good thing? -
@chintanparikh94@paulg you don't see other people interacting as much, so it's harder to feel socially inadequate. -
@chintanparikh94@paulg probably the same reason twitter doesn't give unfollow notifs. twitter filters out any potentially "bad vibes"

Obviates "First post!"/etc. made just for the audience: RT
@paulg One of the keys to Twitter's success is that it's so hard to see replies. -
IOW, on Twitter your @ replies can only harass the named recipient(s), not other readers of the OP/general public. Signal-to-noise goes up.
-
Would still be nice to have a Twitter API to collect a tweet's replies, though. Currently have to use search,which only keeps ~2 weeks data.
-
Unlike forums, on Twitter you can't troll a tweet's audience, only its author. ("Don't read the comments!" "What comments?")
