It's really hard to tell what status updates are new.
I like how you can tell with the email/DMs which ones are new, with statuses it's hard, I just hear a ding and have to try to figure out where I left off.

Inappropriate?We've heard some feedback about this. How would you like to see this reflected?

A background color or an icon that goes away on focus or a mark as read functionality would be nice. -
Inappropriate?OK thanks for the ideas. The idea of changing state upon focus is interesting. That could be better than actively clicking to mark as read since that might be too much effort. Perhaps when you hover over a status for a certain time length (1 second) it changes to 'read'?
Changing read state on scroll (like Google Reader) is another approach but not sure that'd be as good for short tweets/FB statuses. -
Inappropriate?I like the idea of a different background color for new status updates. I absolutely would not want to have to click each update to make it "read". Something along the lines of hover over the update for 2 seconds or so to make it mark as "read" sounds better.
