Hacker News Reader

As a sometimes-OCD, I'd like an unread tweets feature e.g.:

Unread (77)

Of course, this might require consumer-level eye ball tracking to see if you "read" one

You can also add twitter feeds to Google Reader (Google apparently does not have to adhere to API limits). I do this for any twitter accounts <s>I stalk</s> that I don't want to miss.

Can you only add individual accounts? Doesn't seem possible to add all of the people I follow as a single feed.

I used this http://decafbad.com/2009/01/twitter-friend-faves-opml/ to create an OPML file, and then edited it so it contained status feeds instead of favorites.

I just stumbled up on this too, which is probably a better idea: http://www.voiceoftech.com/swhitley/?p=408

Use Tweetdeck. A lot of other clients have this feature too.

Thanks. I've been avoiding Tweetdeck/clients (only use Tweetie or web at the moment)
