Now people are talking about Pownce. I have an invitation somewhere, but frankly, I am not interested. Oh, I know, it combines the functionality of twitter with the file sharing. But: "Web 2.0 derides the siloed balkanization of traditional media - yet Web 2.0 doesn't have the wherewithal to figure out that I've now seen the same feed item for the fourteenth time in four different platforms. APIs are great, and Facebook Platform is great, and RSS feeds are great, but the interoperability still seems to be very superficial, more intended to demonstrate the ability to connect rather than to actually enhance the user experience." I'm getting frustrated - all this talk, but vendors still seem to be much more about lock-in than anything else. And the network suffers.
