Why Doesn't Nambu Show Conversations?
Echofon (formerly Twitterfon) on the iPhone has a simple feature that let's you click on a username in a "conversation" that shows the whole "conversation".
For example, suppose you see a tweet like "FriendA: @FriendB I know what you mean?"
On Echofon I can click on that tweet and it will allow me to see the thread of tweets and replies which led to this tweet. They call it "show conversation with @FriendB" or whatever the username is.
Is there any chance of Nambu developing this as a feature? At present Echofon on my iPhone outdoes Nambu in two main ways, this and the ability to select a friend to send a tweet to. It seems shameful that an iPhone app has so much better usability than a desktop app.

how does it? as far as i can see it simply takes you to the other person's timeline. Echofon actually reproduces the 'conversation' line by line. Unless i'm missing something... -
Inappropriate?Don't click on the @name in the reply, double click on the message and you get something along the lines of this...

We likely wont implement quite like that, but it will be similar.

Oh thanks a lot, r3v. That's brilliant. I'm back with Tweetie now :)

I trust threaded replies are still going to be reimplemented in time. :)

Not 100% on that, but very likely, yes.
