Cute, but usable?

I thought the screenshots on the app page in the store were part of a dare, but they actually are representative screenshots. This is how tweets etc. appear. Its a nice idea for pithy posts, but as a way to consume a stream of information, I find this design approach to be non-ideal. Might be better for DM/IM, where youre really dealing with messages, not streams.
