I disagree. I plan on (probably this weekend) creating a Twitter
account service which places your friends on your contact list with
their status as their recent tweets. This combined with a recent
status window would work perfectly. Messages to the user would be
direct messages. Then Adium-using Tweeters could potentially hold
conversations over the medium as well.

Yeah, I have something similar to that locally for toolbar buttons.
