Twit, Pownce or Jaiku?

Journal Entry: Tue Jul 3, 2007, 4:44 AM
Do you Twit? Perhaps you Pownce? Prefer Jaiku?

Have you bothered to use any of these services? Have a preference? Why?

Had never even heard of any of them until you posted this journal =D

I've seen some people who Twitter, but not the other two.

Personally, I don't see the point. I already have too many social networking sites to deal with, and I'm only on dA and Facebook, and the latter only cause my girlfriend forced me.

Seems like too much hassle for far too little gain.

That's funny. A few days ago I was seeing your name somewhere here on dA and thinking of the whole story that happened (as far as I know about it). Then I thought that you finally got over it and don't try to make this public fight against your co-founders going on. But obviously I'm wrong... seems like you still didn't got over it. I wonder what it gives you to write things like "I wonder why I even bother to visit deviantART any more these days. It is a fucking waste of my precious time methinks.".
You know that people who share this place here with friends and have their network will never leave DeviantART. What you do is rather make you look like someone who can't loose. The word loosing is probably wrong... I don't know what really happened backstage. But I think you shouold be proud to be one of the co-founders of this place. Even though many things aren't going the way it could have gone it still is a huge community. And you know what potential it has.
I'm not blaming you for writing this journal and making people try other communities. I think that's even good because like this everyone will find the community that suits him or her most which means people who don't belong to dA will maybe find a better place for them. But I am blaming you for putting sentences (as mentioned above) right on top of the pages you refer to in this journal.

Maybe you think about it...

No. No. And HELL no.

Some of these sites actually SERVE a role and purpose.

The myspace, facebooks and such of the world serve a role, a purpose. They are blogging journals for people to plop down their thoughts. But even NOW they are becoming the target of advertisements and promotions, taking away much of the glamour they once had (if ever).

Places like Last.fm. They serve a purpose. Broadcasting music preferences. If nothing else it helps end the question "What sort of music do you listen to?". You can direct them to your page.

But Twitter, Pownce, or Jaiku. What do they do? At best all I can see for a purpose (aka, reason to apply my time there) would be a loosely based place to write random baseless thoughs. I have yet to fathom WHY anyone would want to do this.

Anywho, my point is that Web 2.0 sites with a purpose and direction, I salute and approve of. The others need to stop.

Thats my 2 cents.

me have twittered but don`t know the other two!
Twitter is a fun thing but not a lot more and it wears a bit thin very soon...unless this kind of system is used effectively as I think you would do by incorporating it into a blog thing....but it is fun, even for a short while.....
