Started doing something similar on a private twitter account which follows no one, and no one follows it. Once I do something, I tweet. Benefits: Using twitter as a platform, keep description in 140 chars, search, timestamp etc.
However, I violated the first rule of using the organization tool i.e. Trust your tool. Yet another post on hackernews and I got distracted into trying Trello, and what not for a promise of increased productivity.
The trouble with Twitter is that you can't go back and find tweets from the past to figure out, say, what did I do in the 2nd week of November last year or when did I send that notice out.
