Twitter doesn’t currently have any feature that allows you to group the people you follow, which is pretty annoying if you follow more than a handful of people. While many Twitter clients allow you to do this, you can also hackishly accomplish “grouping” by using the search box and the “Save this search” feature.

Lets say you want to group three of your friends, all named Bob, and easily view only their tweets on your home page.

Do a search in the sidebar search box for:

from:Bob1 OR from:Bob2 OR from:Bob3

This shows only tweets from those three users. Then you can save the search, and have it be easily accessible on the right side of your page.

If only they allowed you to name your saved searches…
