I quit Twitter for a month and it changed my think...
140 characters is enough for a title and a link; is it really that different from "following" the HN front page?

HN has voting. Twitter is more like the New page on HN on reddit, which are horrible.

That's not quite fair: on Twitter you choose who to follow, so there's still a filter. In fact in some ways a superior filter -- I can't select which votes I want to count on HN, but I effectively can on Twitter (or could, if I used it actively).
