These columns get organized however you'd like, and it's easy to delete columns that you don't want. You can design new custom columns based on search terms, users, and hashtags.

This layout keeps things fairly simple and makes it easy to tab to Echofon to check in without suffering data overload. You view a single column's worth of Tweets at a time this could be your basic Twitter feed, tweets that Mention you, your List view, or a keyword search.
