It's kind of like being in a room full of strangers at a conference - one can pick up many conversations and move from one person to another with ease. It's just as easy to make a long-lasting acquaintance as it is to make an informal one on Twitter without worrying if that new contact is a "friend," "associate," "colleague" or what-have-you.
