Yes, it's pretty effective. I just simply make it a point to write for the first hour or so every day except Saturday. I often need to write more than that but never less and everything i write gets used *somewhere*. - Michael Gartenberg
It's driving me nuts. Real spotty. I'm at the point now where I'm seriously considering going to a different service. - Tommy Morgan
I'm not sure there is an alternative yet. Of what's available, I'm liking FriendFeed best, but it does lack the spartan simplicity that made twitter attractive in the first place. That's not really a criticism of FF, but it's not quite the same. - Phil Crissman
I'm really enjoying FF so far... the multi-service mashups are nearly too much, but I think a good client could really work wonders for it. - Jason Alexander via Alert Thingy
yeah, it's horrible. i'm mostly using friendfeed now - Travis Cooper
Had this discussion with Kevin (@smithk14) earlier today - the alternatives are out there. If it were just the functionality everybody'd be on jaiku or pownce by now, from what I can see. - Tommy Morgan
Phil, try Friendfeed via Twhirl. It almost has the twitter simplicity. - Peter Fleck
I'll give it another whirl (no pun int... okay, I can't say that)... but I've found that AIR apps seem to steal a LOT of memory over time when left on. Is that just me? - Phil Crissman
That has been a problem. I should check my system and see. I run it on a Mac. - Peter Fleck
I run Mac at home, XP at work; feels like I've seen the problem with AIR apps on both machines. Still, maybe you just expect to restart the app once in awhile. Like Windows 95. :-) - Phil Crissman
already got it. I see the Seesmic logo at the bottom of the update screen. Is there a Seesmic tie in or that's just an ad for helping them raise funding? - Olumide Alabi via twhirl
seems like a maintenance update, so far so good anyways - Chris Jones via twhirl
