You're right. I have a history of personal projects that I've started and never finished. I think the problem is that since I had a day job during that time, it was easy for me to lose focus. I've since quit my day job and I've been working full-time on my new projects (not related to twitter, but I did gain some good experience and reusable libraries with that project). It's one of the problem you face if you have a startup and a day job. At least when I would get home from my job, it was very difficult to switch gears to my own projects..and my code ended up unfocused and scattered.
