http://www.readwriteweb.com/archives/microblogging_vs_blogging_5_ways_to_create_an_open_twitter_alternative.php Given the recent developments in the Twitter developer ecosystem, I think it's a good time to revisit the idea of an open Web alternative to Twitter. The fact is, the differences between microblogging and normal blogging are insignificant.
The open source microblogging service StatusNet - the power behind identi.ca - announced today the release of its iPhone app . The app makes it easy to connect via mobile to a StatusNet site, and it supports posting from an iPhone, sending attachments, as well as following public, profile and friends' timelines. Users can connect to accounts on multiple StatusNet sites from within the app.
