I'll have to agree with you. Twitter seems one dimensional in comparison.

Dunno yet. I'm simply not willing to call it a day with Twitter.
- l0ckergn0me
Yeah, I'm not giving up on Twitter. Partly because it's still the best way to get little "microposts" into FriendFeed or whatever, and partly because of the network I've built there. I follow almost 500 people on Twitter, and 2100+ follow me. The numbers are there on FriendFeed yet. If they ever exceed Twiter then I'll consider stopping tweeting altogether. But I doubt that will ever happen.

Friendfeed's nice, but I'm digging Plurk more.

Twitter is great for sending out information.. Friendfeed is good place to start a conversation.

until FF has a "text/sms" option like twitter, you will see people stay on twitter. Yes FF supercedes Twitter, but the SMS option is used by many people

That's a very good point, Steve. I think Twitter and it's friends will remain as a source of "microposts", that feed into FriendFeed, along with blogs, pictures, and everything else. I can see myself continuing to post with Twitter instead of FF, but reading/discovering/commenting/conversing more on FF. It's an interesting balance.

Twitter could do better (and might) as a friendly bird, but FF is an interstellar rocket.

Twitter might be looking frumpy for early adopters, but I understand it's adding new members all the time. FF's the better, more useful, platform from my perspective, but Twitter's still got more name recognition and buzz going for it.
- Tom Landini
That's a good point, Tom. The more I think about it, the more I realize that there's room/need for both. Twitter as a place to originate/write little posts and thoughts, and FriendFeed as a place to suck up and aggregate them all, and have conversations around them.
