Google’s Jaiku vs. Twitter?

oddly enough, I have just been going back through my jaiku account to see how it is over there. they may not have the users and community that Twitter has, but it sure feels smooother! :) And with Google behind it, I'd say they can scale it :) - kosso

The thing I like about Jaiku is that while it functions like Twitter, it's much easier to follow conversations. Comments to your posts show as comments, not an @reply 3 pages down, where you may never see it. Another plus is that there is no need for services like Twitterfeed as Jaiku can pull the feeds itself. The things I don't like are the time it takes to pull in certain feeds (sometimes hours) and the fact that there isn't as much activity over there. - cmiper

Wouldn't this be the right time for Google (given Twitters technical problems) to open up Jaiku and pull/win people over from Twitter? - Gabriel N.

Agree with cmiper. I wrote about Jaiku in July of last year (http://www.raoulpop.com/2007/0...), and have been using it since late spring in 2007. I loved the feed integration, back before FriendFeed even existed, but the polling times for feeds were and still are ridiculously long (sometimes days, not hours) and there's very little activity. You can go to my Jaiku account and see for yourselves: http://raoul.jaiku.com/. - Raoul Pop

e has a history of buying tools / companies then simply letting them languish and ruining them (jottspot anyone?) - Jaiku is just another exaple of that. Google might be getting too big to be as nimble as they used to be? - Soulhuntre via twhirl

It was mentioned in another FF comment thread but go to http://JaikuInvites.com for jaiku invites. I got mine within an hour of my request - acedanger

soulhuntre - don't you hate it when twhirl refreshes and you lose part of your comment, press enter and post it and then realize it's f'd up?! anyway - I used to get excited when Google would buy a "useful" service and then get disappointed when it stagnated for a year or so... - acedanger

Yeah, it is farily frustrating(that twhirl thing) - it shoudl suspend updates while I type. Google is not the universal saviour it's rep has it pegged as frankly - they blow it on a lot of stuff. - Soulhuntre via twhirl

Friend me on jaiku - http://alexdesigns.jaiku.com/ - alexdesigns

I'm on Jaiki too (mikelewis) - Mike Lewis

Twitter ... I couldnt get used to jaiku for a reason - Alemsah via Alert Thingy

acedanger and soulhunter, I have brought the refresh issue to Twhirl's attention twice: once through Twitter and once through their support forum. The only response I have received was, "That shouldn't be happening. We'll look into it." Well, thanks, but I know it shouldn't be happening. It seems to me this is a critical bug worthy of its own maintenance release. It also appears that since Seesmic bought Twhirl, bug fixes and updates are much slower to come out. - Gregory Pittman via twhirl

Twitter aura inimitable:) - Igor Poltavskiy

@Soulhuntre Google also has a history of buying companies and turning them into wild successes. Not every acquisition works out as intended. Jottspot was handled poorly but it hardly constitutes a pattern. - Kevin D. White

I only joined a couple of days ago but didn't like the UI and found Twitter to FF easier to play with. It doesn't make finding your existing friends easy. - Sally Church

I like Jaiku but people have chosen to use twitter - if I leave twitter I leave my community and join one that they may not want to be involved in. I also agree about the feeds they are slow. I also agree that Google will offer a very stable service. But truth is - twitter is where everyone is at and the service that they have chosen - so more happens there. BUT recent problems associated with twitter may just change the playing field. Everything will hinge on how long it takes them to "fix" things. - Dave Gray

I have some 20 invites for jaiku, leave your email on my channel. I'v read all these comments from ff mobile, works great. About jaiku, jaiku was doing feed integration from any Rss feed when FF was still a tought or a dream, they have been silent since the Google acquisition, but i have the feeling they where they are going.. - Ben Borges via fftogo

Weren't Google accused of much the same behaviour - buying, neglecting and letting an acquisition wither on the vine - with Writely ? Then, eventually, Google Docs emerged. Hope the same is true for Jaiku. If anyone can integrate with gMail, gTalk, gReader, iGoogle tightly and provide a performant, scalable service, it should be Google. - Andy C

Actually I trust Google's ability on integrating their acquisition than other company. Jaiku should integrate with Gmail so all email, IM and messaging go under one roof. - Leon Ho

Personally, I prefer Pownce to either of these services. I really like the ability to share files as well as text. - Tim Finucane

To twitt is just to scream out in space, when writing on Jaiku people engage you. - Tomas Seo

Tomas Seo, do you think it's because there are relatively few people on Jaiku? - Dewald Pretorius via twhirl

I would have rated Pownce above both services, mainly for its ability to file and photo share, and also to post to groups of contacts, but the service is horribly slow and following threads is next to impossible. - cmiper

cmiper, that just shows how difficult it is to scale these services - Dewald Pretorius via twhirl

invites available at http://jaikuinvites.com/need-a... -- took me 20minutes .. all thanks to @gregeh - Jez Arnold

Dewald - I agree, but then right in the thick of it, Pownce upped the file upload limits to 100MB (from 10mb) for non-paid members and 250mb (from 100mb) for paid members and also added the ability to show those files to the public, increasing the amount of hits/download/bandwidth on the system. Seems as though they should have worked out the issues before adding to the cause IMHO. - cmiper

sues, but the noise / bandwidth problem gets insane. - Soulhuntre via twhirl

@Nzben is responsible for this crazy conversation. (he prompted me to start it in email). Thanks! - Robert Scoble

Okay, after seeing how gigantic the Jaiku vs. Twitter comment threads went, I'm giving it another shot: (http://BeardedDave.jaiku.com/). I tried it out a while ago but it somehow seemed like empty space, compared with what is going on on FF ;) - Bearded_Dave

Robert, come to think of it, is asking "Jaiku vs Twitter" actually a valid question? After having looked at all three services, I think Jaiku leans far closer to FriendFeed in purpose than Twitter. - Dewald Pretorius

I was gonna say something but this pretty much hits the nail on the head "Robert, come to think of it, is asking "Jaiku vs Twitter" actually a valid question? After having looked at all three services, I think Jaiku leans far closer to FriendFeed in purpose than Twitter." - william douglas watson via twhirl
