By the way, it seems like extreme product fail on Twitter's part that I have to go to a sketchy third party site to get the top tweets for an account.

Not necessarily. They just decided not to have this specific feature. It is a product design decision.

Of course they decided not to have it. It's not like they aren't capable of implementing simple features. I just think it's a dumb decision.

For many Twitter accounts, the top tweets are a lot more interesting than the latest tweets, especially if you've just discovered the account for the first time.

What do you think the basis of that decision is?
