Twitter's Tweetdeck update allows for custom timeline creation

"Whether you want to collect the best Tweets about a TV show or help people find the latest information about fast-moving real-time situations, custom timelines let you give everyone a place to follow along," Twitter's Brian Ellin wrote in a blog post.
