it is an incredibly beautiful country, i have lots of friends here in india from iran, one called her daughter in iran, the daughter was skiing … it ain’t so bad as we think … and there are many countries where social unity is a hugely important thing, not like america …

Completely agree; the web app is fine by itself. Two related thoughts. Windows users can use Prism from Mozilla to get similar funtionality to Fluid. Also: I use the the FriendFeed Google Gadget. Using that with FireFox, I can run FF on my browser sidebar all day. The gadget auto refreshes, which is key.

Comment on Identi.ca: Twitter Killer or a Distraction? by Ernie Oporto

Ernie Oporto — Fri, 04 Jul 2008 21:58:16 +0000

I have high hopes for identi.ca since it attempts to create a merger of Twitter and FriendFeed. Since it links to ping.fm, it allows me to send the same updates to that crowd as well as any other social networks I’m a member of. But if it can provide the same amount of social network API hooks that FriendFeed and Ping.FM has accumulated, it could replace them all.

What all these services need are more automatic triggers, so they generate messages not just from IM sources, but from blogs and RSS feeds by just presenting those URLs.
