We should add a way to see the list of followed people.
Possible way:
 - fill the participants list of the timeline chat rooms with all followed people.
 - put all of them in the buddy list in a "twitter" group (or <account name> twitter, or whatever).

We should also add a way to follow new people when seeing their tweets (Probably people whose tweet have been shown because of the track feature).
We should offer ways to stop following someone.

I like this way and keeping the participants list for current/recent tweets.

Add a buddy to the buddy list to follow them?

Maybe we can add more on hover things to each tweet that are reply/retweet/(un)follow? (Follow/unfollow would depend whether it's from a tracked keyword or not.)

Attached patch Patch v1Splinter Review
*** Original post on bio 684 as attmnt 824 at 2011-09-15 23:47:00 UTC ***

This patch adds either a "Follow" or a "Stop following" action in the tweet context menu.
Also, using the Add Buddy dialog will make the account follow the entered user name.

Not handled:
- putting anything in the buddy list
- putting all the followees in the participants list of the timeline. Do we want this? If we do, it requires calling this API (https://dev.twitter.com/docs/api/1/get/users/lookup) per batches of 100 users once we have received the friends array from the user stream.

Also, I don't think we want to put these in the participants list until they actualy make a tweet. :)

I spun off the remaining issues into bug 954474 (bio 1039) and bug 954473 (bio 1038), respectively.
