I find it interesting that they chose the name Thread, because it doesn't really work as a verb. "She threaded the news to her fans" doesn't have the same ring to it as "She tweeted the news to her fans."

In my native tounge the name for a forum post is actually "thread", you could say something equivalent to: "did you see the thead she shared?".
