Your link to TheNextWeb also makes me realized that you don't show pricing on your front page.

Also, realizing that I'd have to create rules for the filters is a downer. I was hoping for some kind of machine learning that does the opposite of spam filtering. (I guess that's what I really want -- a "ham" filter for twitter.)

Both of these points have been made elsewhere in the thread, so we should take a look at them. Unfortunately, machine learning isn't as good as users explicitly saying what they want to see (and not nearly as easy to implement either!)

As for pricing, our rationale is that a user shouldn't have to think about pricing unless they get to the stage that they need to pay, and are sufficiently invested in the product.
