Plurk, Heello, App.net and Twitter.
Okay, so I have lotsa handles in my hand. Currently, I have three — Heello, App.net and Twitter. I mentioned Plurk because I signed up there on its heyday, then days ago I decided to disable it.
Twitter: Same old, same old. Lots of friends interacting with, almost perfect.
Heello: This one is headed by the guy behind TwitPic. I got to see the first interface there, but when they announced that they won’t retain the old posts we made on their new version (which has great design, mind you), it went to nada.
App.net: When the news that App.net will go freemium broke out, I was appalled. I requested an invite on Twitter, and a German guy gave me one. Nice interface, but there is no keyboard shortcuts for when I clicked on an image — I just had to press the backspace button.
——-
With all these said, I decided to retain App.net (because it ha been two hours since I sighed up for it) and continue on Twitter (of course). What should I do with my Heello now? Junk it because of the anonymous user base.
