Why not email? What's with the Twitter obsession?
Please be more specific with your question.
I'm apprehensive to reply, given your use of the word "obsession," which sounds like you are biased against Twitter, versus email. If that's the case, please explain your reasons.
Regarding your question, are you suggesting that a system for registering domains by sending an email would be better? If you are, I can think of several reasons why I'd disagree.
For one, email addresses can be easily spoofed. So to confirm that an email was really sent by someone, there might need to be some sort of autoreply with a confirmation link. At that point, you've used your email client, your web browser, and have added several steps to the process.
So I think, in that case, registering oTwitter is more efficient.
I also think that Twitter is more reliable than Email, in several respects. Though neither platform is perfect.

Are you pud from Fcked company?
Would be great to have a Fcked company on Solyndra: takes 600MM from .gov to "create jobs", builds then shutters plant, burns through cash, shuts out 1,100 employees with no severence/vacation time payout. Gets raided by FBI.

Do they support private registration?
Overall a nice affiliate front end with a value add.
