The hype about that micro blogging service

@23 And amazingly we’ve been able to do that with IM and Text Messaging for some time now.

The solution? Enter 77.

Just another ‘cult of personality’ central service, more fun for the connected party people or group events, over much real world use.

@23.. I don’t know about you, but I prefer a little more depth from reading blogs than 160 characters at a time.

@LayZ – 140 characters. 180? I wish! Think how much more I could say!

@Robert – couch works, as long as it’s the red one.

@Ilya – I am calling them Twats: http://lagesse.org/index.php/2007/03/14/twitter-lingo/

Okay, you asked for it: Your Videos Suck

From a “follower” and not a “friend”

I’m being contrary:

1)Maryam rules! Hope the couch is comfy.
2)Your videos don’t suck!
3)The T-word doesn’t suck either, but I loved it for its immediacy at the event rather more than its sanity. I don’t know that I could keep it up and have a day job.
4) there’s enough hate in the world without having to pay for it.
5) I see a future that combines the T-word with the ZeFrank approach. 5 second video real-time from people.

The service that shall not be named is pretty cool.
Your wife is right Robert.

I’m not married but my girl told me she’ll format my drives if I don’t remove the sms notive service

Phew…at least Maryam’s threats indicate that you don’t don’t have an equity stake in the company. The frequency of posts about the topic was beginning to make me think that you did.

mobile cell phone providers should be frothing over this but I’m also interested in seeing what happens when the spammer crowd finds ways to join in on multiple devices…

Everyone is going Tiwtter mad!

@29. Then say it on your blog

As those that “don’t get it” being “twats”. clever. But we get it. Group text messaging with history. With the ability of spammers to chime in. What am I missing?

>forsalebylocals: I don’t have equity in any company except for Microsoft and PodTech. I will disclose anytime that ever changes.

I’m not being paid by any company other than PodTech and I will also disclose anytime that changes.

#38: things I like about Twitter? You’re not on it.
Also, spammers? Demonstrates you don’t use it. If one shows up I simply “unfriend” that account.

I am with Dave Winer on this one. I don’t ‘get’ twitter. But anything that stirs up so much of passionate arguments – pro and anti- shouldn’t be discounted that easily.

But something i disagree on my own is Robert’s hype about twitter.

@40 just because you “unfriend” a spammer doesn’t mean spammers aren’t on it. What’s the difference between that and marking an unwanted email as junk mail? Doesn’t mean I’m not getting spam.

I was on it. No longer on it. I didn’t find my life was being “enriched” and I found it hard to hang out with “stars”

Robert, I tell marketers this all the time – they need more controversy. They need to learn how to leak information properly. Sometimes a screenshot is worth more than a blog post, because until all the information about the product is revealed, people are busy speculating, discussing and debating.

But most marketers don’t get this. They want everything in a nice tidy press release that’s been proofed by 15 executives and revised at least 20 times. Press releases no longer serve their purpose, in my opinion. 99% of them are DOA. You can instantly tell if a magazine, newspaper or blog article was pulled from a press release – because they’re so damn bland, and usually avoid any kind of critical discourse.
