I'm now an obnoxious, annoying twitter addict.

Thanks Nick, Nate, Pokeh and Dave.

Anyone else I ought to follow?

Now how do I get my tweets to my inbox?

No idea, I just use the Twitterfox add-on for Firefox and Twitterrific on my iPod Touch.

Fair enough.

I wish there was a good mail.app plugin.

It would get REALLY tedious dude. You'd be inundated.

I agree with Nate.

Either use the website or get a desktop app like Twhirl.

I used to use their XMPP/Jabber service which was really good, although their bot died 4-5 months ago and they haven't fixed it. So I just use the website.

Twhirl's terrific. I love it.

I'm pretty anorexic with who I follow. I got rid of a hundred or so people. I only follow the CNET guys and a couple of other people, so I wouldn't mind.

Fair enough. I don't know any emailers off-hand, but Google will be your friend.
