    Join the openmicroblogging train! Federation FTW!
    http://identi.ca or http://floss.pro etc

  2. pinky says

    Yeah Craig! identi.ca is the place where the free software people hang out and that’s the train nobody should miss who is a part of (or interested in) the free software movement.

    Twitter? Not Identi.ca? Ah!—you’re trying to tell us that you hate freedom. I see.

  4. Nicolas says

    Guys, seriously, give me a break. I hardly ever heard about identi.ca or similar services, all I knew is Twitter. Inducting I’d hate freedom because of giving Twitter a try might just be a too big step.

    I guess I’m not allowed to use GMail, GitHub (not that I use one of these, but well), Facebook, LinkedIn, last.fm,… heck, even the good old Google search service either?

    Nicolas,

    Check autonomo.us -> wiki for free alternatives to most of those.. :)

    I think the hating freedom comment was a bit tounge-in-cheek… Didn’t you ever listen to LugRadio? ;)

  6. chuck says

    If you have two services that are at least equal but for the fact that one is open and Free and the other is a black box why not opt for the Free option?

    Let us know what you identi.ca login is and we’ll follow you there;)

  7. Nicolas says

    Mats: no, I don’t listen to/watch pod/videocasts, I like to read things, since that goes much faster.

    Chuck: what’s more black box to Twitter than identi.ca? For the latter the source of the application being hosted is available, right, but the service itself is still a black box to me. For hosted services I think it’s much more important a public API is available, which is the case for Twitter as wel AFAIK (although I didn’t look at it yet).

    Anyway: http://identi.ca/nicolast although I’ll only use this is I manage to multiplex with Twitter as well.

    Twitter in some ways is much better than blogging. I love to Twitter my everyday activities on my friends and relatives.
