If you manage your friend list.<\/p>\n<p>And if you want yet another news flow, you can make <a href=\"http:\/\/twitter.com\/CNETNews\">a twittering news site like CNet your friend<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Since then <a href=\"http:\/\/robbielink.com\/\">new twitter friend and musician Robbie Link<\/a> put me onto the insanely simple to use <a href=\"http:\/\/lud.icro.us\/post-twitter-updates-from-firefox\/\">&#8220;post it to twitter&#8221;<\/a> add-on to the Firefox search box. This makes posting a tweet as simple as typing in the search box once that feature is selected. The downside is that it doesn&#8217;t collect tweets &#8212; you go to your Twitter home page for that &#8212; and it doesn&#8217;t update your Instant Messenger status.
