via netzwertig.com by Markus Spath on July 08, 2008

Twitter gets its sexy back. And by “sexy” I mean users.
via VentureBeat by MG Siegler on July 08, 2008

This lead many to proclaim that other services such as Plurk, Identi.ca and FriendFeed were on the verge of rising up to take its place.There was just one problem with that — none of those service had...
