I like the concept of personally curated account collections from @surf, @Iconfactory Tapestry and @newsmast Channels.

Surf app has a fun interface and some excellent filtering tools.

Channels lets you stay in your comfy app of choice and get boosted posts in your existing timeline.

Tapestry has an enjoyable interface, and extremely customizable. A bit of a different beast - you build your own timelines, from just about any feed you can imagine!
