this site doesn't have most of twitter's more social network-y (for a lack of better word) features: your timeline doesn't show when two people you know have a conversation, you don't see when people you know like eachother's posts, the profiles you visit don't show their connection to people you know… it's a lot more like following a bunch of blogs which have associated comments sections. i have seen already that some people prefer this more tumblr-like experience, but, ah, for long-time twitter users like me who used that site mostly as a way to talk to friends, i think cohost might feel like it's missing something.

(this isn't a criticism, though it is kinda a response to a different post i saw that was celebrating how un-twitter-like cohost is, and i wanted to offer a different perspective)

honestly, sometimes the "people are chatting" is great, but when you've got a shared audience, you can't chat to your friends without 20 randos trampling over themselves to make the same joke
