I really enjoy getting updates via SMS but at times find it difficult to keep up. it's even more difficult when I get the computer and I see my full follow list. It IS too much most of the time. Thanks for coming back to this Sean, I will definitely be looking at my following list again. You make a lot of great points here and have made me think about the way I SHOULD be using twitter.

Especially since the whole point of Twitter is supposed to get be out and about in the real-world. On reading this I just realized that you could plug the RSS Feed from Summize for each search term into the a little <a href="http://grinding.be/2008/02/25/more-notes-on-presence-how-to-stay-in-contact-when-youre-everywhere/" rel="nofollow">Twitter Digital Assistant I've documented</a>. Won't give you exactly instant notifications, due to Twitterfeed's minimum poll-rate of 30mins, but it'll fill the gap I think. Given Twitter still haven't got IM back online, I think Track's going to be offline a while longer. I miss Track too.
