A comment on the question "When is Twitter going to get groups?" in Twitter:
QUOTING...However, I'd argue there's fewer users who are interested in "Let me send messages to everyone that's at this place I'm at" and more who are into "Let me tell my friends but not my co-workers what I'm up to."

Perhaps if they're really buying Summize, they'll finally get behind the concept of hashtags. They are easy to use and don't require creating anything new. Summize + hashtags takes care of the scenario you describe here. (However, I think that's very separate from the concept of groups. Twitter would be smart to hop on that train; especially with FriendFeed and their "rooms.") – quepol, on July 09, 2008 22:42

I would like to understand how to use this better, but I am not happy with the "How it Works" portion. I want to invite people, then be able to address them directly. Once I have addressed them directly, will anyone else of my invites be able to see the message I have sent to 1 person? So confused!!!!!!!!!!! And How do I do a group send out? is this possible yet? – Coby

create a new twitter account for your inner circle and mark the updates as protected. sign up that account with http://grouptweet.com/ . you control who sees the updates (who is a member). – damon, on June 10, 2008 18:33
A comment on the question "When is Twitter going to get groups?" in Twitter:
For me, it's just a privacy thing. I'd like to let my closest friends know (geographically) where I am, without letting the whole world know where I am. So, I guess, a semi-private communication service; I could do it with multiple recipient SMS outside of Twitter, but I like and am now regularly using the twitter interface (and twitterberry) so it would be convenient to be able to tweet my inner circle in this way. – theclimbergirl, on June 10, 2008 18:10

Doesn't that somewhat defeat the purpose of having a public twitter stream? I'm trying to figure out if what people want in the groups feature is a way to not SMS-spam their "further" followers or actually some form of semi-private communications service.
Considering that Twitter sees itself as a "follow-based" or "recipient-based" service when each person chooses how much of the firehose they'd like pointed in their direction, my first conjecture about spamminess seems moot.

A comment on the question "When is Twitter going to get groups?" in Twitter:
Privacy is definitely a must. I use two twitter accounts just because I use it so much for a private group (my band, we all use it via SMS) but I say things I would like to keep within that context. And I use another account via Twitterific just for regular twitter usage. If i could have one account where I could address a private group like this : dg myGroup ...
That would be awesome.
The conferencing ideas are pretty great as well, maybe a mixture of both features? – SweetMercury, on May 21, 2008 01:40
