yes that is what it is like... but now that we have Plurk and friendfeed and a lot of people are here.... why is twitter still going down? problem is the Alist. these dudes don't supervise the community and they kill the database more then anything else. lets get twitter to have a limit on the amount of people a person can follow (1500 tops). we might not be using twitter, but our follows and following is still happening and the echoes from twitterfeed and ever other feed still happen. twitter is great because it interfaces with friendfeed, myspace and facebook. lets save it by conserving. kick the Alist out! - Noah David Simon
