IMHO, Twitter should only act as a digital news platform. I usually search for (the same) specific terms and look at nothing else. If Twitter knew this, they could make the whole experience way more seamless and pleasant for me (saved searches and following is a pretty long work-around). The problem with such a platform would be how to know if someone in a riot (for ex.) is posting 'news' or not. This seems to be where channels would go a long way to sorting through the hay to find the needle.
