BTW does any of you uses Twitter? If yes I would encourage you to put up your own StatusNet instance - http://status.net and than invite all your Twitter friends to create an account or put up an another instance themselves.
Hopefully you could fast recreate all your connections but over distributed network, based on open source software and open protocols. One day I would like to ask people using for example Github to consider doing similar move and to use federated network of Gitorous sites. Even better if people from Github would join developing needed open protocols and one day make their software also capable of working in federation and inter-operating with Gitorious (and others?). But maybe let's don't sidetrack too much into talking about Tweeter on this thread =) If someone likes we could discuss it further maybe in this group: http://groups.google.com/group/ostatus-discuss -- To post to this group, send email to [email protected] To unsubscribe from this group, send email to [email protected]
