What's the point of the online twitter account in Gnome 3.2?

Hi,

I was wondering what is the utility of synchronizing the twitter account in Gnome 3.2. I use the Google account, which is very usefull: mail, chat, calendar… but I don’t see any change when use the twitter account. Maybe my retweets are notified? I haven’t found any explanation of this feature.

Thanks.

Yeah, nobody seems to know how it works xD. Perhaps you only get notifications when “something interesting” happens, like someone replies or retweets you… who knows. Thanks anyway.
