Launching is a scary process, and getting picked up on major sites seems both about timing and politics. But in the end, yes, it's the features (and the fact that they do or don't work) that will ultimately lead to launch success and ultimately adoption. I'm scared because, well, I'm going through the decisions about that now...</p><p>On another note, I am very curious to see what will happen with <a href="http://identi.ca" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank" title="identi.ca">identi.ca</a>, as well as FriendFeed and Plurk. I'm a little worn out with social networks but I realize that I'm already slipping behind...</p>Jared GoralnickSun, 06 Jul 2008 22:23:48 -0000http://technosailor.com/2008/07/03/identica-and-the-art-of-the-launch/#comment-928697149<p>Well, twitter's XMPP hasn't worked for me for months either, so that's not really a reason not to use <a href="http://identi.ca" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank" title="identi.ca">identi.ca</a> - I've a bit more faith that someone will fix it because the code is open.</p>MJ RayFri, 04 Jul 2008 08:47:20 -0000http://technosailor.com/2008/07/03/identica-and-the-art-of-the-launch/#comment-928697145<p>u r a dick. no, i kid, u r right. will you give them another chance after some more oss dev?? i hope it happens, love the idea. i should have been more critical of them but hey, a few *key* features aside they r on to something. so much so that i think ppl r pissed b/c they wanted it to work so bad. so give em time. if it works it will rock. if they werent open source i'd agree w u and say they r screwed</p>marshallFri, 04 Jul 2008 01:15:39 -0000
