Well, I was rather hoping it *would* send me a copy of my own tweets (posted via other than XMPP gateway) back to me in IM. I guess I could live without it, but if this service persists maybe I’ll find I won’t be using the other clients much, if at all.
Removing your own tweet from the stream is a feature: You do not want to have your mobile vibrate to warn you of your own message. This is annoying. Instant messaging is for new incoming message.
