Twitter's Suggestion Page = Lounge Area

The twitter's Suggestion Page gives new users, especially those very new to twitter, a breathing space. I believe it is a very good way for 'confused' users to unwind and at least get familiarized with the new surrounding.

If you have a web application which is a total new concept, a 'lounge area' like Suggestion page is a good way to make your users feel comfortable before tackling the unfamiliar grounds of your application.
