Yep, but if Twitter doesn't learn how to monetize, they won't be around either in a few years - regardless of competition of there lack of. - David Wilson

i kind hope twitter dies too...seriously. - Zee.

Zee hit it right there, it's just another Twitter clone with nothing new to offer, and basically rubbish. Good luck to Sixapart. - Mohomed=genieyclo

Harsh words guys, why so hostile? - Simon Wicks

So pownce is getting Sandied. - Jim Jannotti

Simon, for my thoughts really best to read my thoughts in the post but frankly I'm sick of services that have had the time to at least get bugs fixed and highly requested features added...and never do and wonder why they're not doing well. Twitter is up there and *if* they continue the way there are - they'll get what they deserve. - Zee.

Ok mainly a bugs thing then. I wrote a big rant here about Twitter, but then decided not to post it, as we dont wanna get off topic. ill save it for another time :) - Simon Wicks

i'm sure there'll be plenty of appropriate occasions... :) - Zee.

I don't think Pownce ever got the traction it needed. - Paul W. Swansen

with awesome press like this http://valleywag.com/tag/leah-... and this http://uncov.com/2007/12/20/po... you wonder what took them so long to die. - Mark Bean

I subscribed to Pownce and never bought in. Why? With FriendFeed and Twitter. Plus, information overload, I focused my energy on FF and Twitter instead. - ka3drr

Pownce was acquired for the talent. Personally, I never got Pownce, but I am sorry to see it go. People that were using it (and liked it) are left out in the cold all of a sudden. - Ryan Twomey

I think it was pretty clear once co founder kevin rose started advertising his twitter account instead of his pownce account that the end was near. - Aaron D'Amico

None. Even on Windows I don't really need an Antivirus (I usually use one anyway). If you are careful in surfing this should not be a problem, ESPECIALLY on a Mac. - Brandon Titus

None, but those claiming safe surfing habits are fooling themselves, drive by malware inhabits the "good" web too - Bill Pennington

None. - Akiva Moskovitz

If you aren't using a browser like Internet Explorer which allows arbitrary running of code through ActiveX and other plugins, I see no problem with claiming "safe surfing habits". A combination of Firefox, a good firewall, and an awareness of current widespread vulnerabilities will quash nearly any virus. I wouldn't say that these measures would be foolproof on Windows but for macs they certainly are. - Brandon Titus

I was commenting about it in my podcast I recorded this morning - reminds me, I need to post that - and it is a lot better than the desktop app or website ever were. - alphaxion

I think it is an improvement over the application. The interface has less 'stuff' to confuse and distract. I would like some options in displaying information. For example listing by popularity, alphabetical or most recent-- have to find a way to get the information you want to the user easier and faster in a mobile app than you do on a desktop one. Still enjoying it though. - Andrew Leyden

it also takes quite a while between tapping on the show you want and the stream beginning - alphaxion

The WiFi only aspect is absolutely retarded. Live video streaming will take off when you can do it over 3G. - Jason Kaneshiro

Would be neat if Netflix had an iPhone app - Nick Humphries

The Instinct has live TV streaming, and I have to say, it works. Watched CNN on election night on the bus home. - Fleagle

I'm not sure I could watch an entire movie on an iPhone. I tried that on my PSP during flights a couple of times, and it just wasn't working for me (and that was a bigger screen). - Fleagle

I've watched a few full movies on a plane, although I often skip around a bit to get to the good bits. On those 14 hour flights to Hong Kong you get tired of the inflight magazine :-). @Jason--I saw that wifi and said 'no, they must be kidding' but you're right. Annoyingly stupid I must say. - Andrew Leyden

I'm just surprised Joost is still around. - Ryan Twomey
