Feature: Link or Jump to Last-Read Tweet
When catching up with my all-friends Twitterstream via web, it's a pain to find where I finished reading the last time. I have to manually click and scroll through pages. Instead, I'd like Twitter to remember the last tweet I read and automatically jump to that point, or at least provide a link.
This could be tracked on the server side by storing the last-read status ID in the database (with write buffering/caching). Alternatively, the ID could be stored on the client side - in a cookie, in the URL or in a link (http://twitter.com/home?from=123456789) - easing database load, but then only the same browser could easily access the info.
Benefits: save time for users, reduce number of pages requested from server.
