"As I've started following more and more people, I've found find it
especially difficult to keep up with everyone.

My twitter network is kind of a series of concentric circles - I have my
close friends/must sees that, for now, get sent to SMS. I also track my
name so I get all replies sent to my phone. The problem is that everyone
else gets put in the same stream, and with such volume it's easy to miss
tweets that I would otherwise want to see (in varying degrees of priority).

Ultimately, what I want is a similar experience that I have right now with
my feed reading. That is, I want to be able to organize those that I'm
following into groups, and view a sliced stream of that group, whether
organized by topic, priority, etc.

I think this would be a big differentiator for Witty - as far as I know, no
other Twitter client does this (if one did, I would probably be using that
instead of Witty/Twhirl), and I think it would be useful for a lot of people. 

Thanks.
Tim

One option is to use search.twitter.com for this. There's a limit of 140 
characters, 
but we could run a few requests and merge the results. Here's a sample query:

TweetDeck (http://www.tweetdeck.com/) has this kind of functionality, and is the
/only/ (literally) reason I use it instead of Witty/Blu/whatever.

I'm not sure you need to use search.twitter.com for basic functionality -- just
filter the results on the "Recent" tab for different sets of users.
