If you continue to cross-post to Twitter, you will never convince your precious 'community' to join you on Laconica. Sever all links. Now.

@gregknicholson Jesus H Christ. I didn't think anyone would listen let alone take decisive and prompt action. /me stands back and applauds.
-
@andyc If actually objecting to the name, no one calls it "Apache Couchdb" very often, for ex. But I think you speak metaphorically.
-
@gregknicholson And it didn't even need a 'vote'. [Sorry - another private #Habari dig :-) ]
-
@josh Really. Look at the web site. Look at what the product is 'called' - http://couchdb.apache.org/
-
@andyc couchdb rocks
-
@josh My objection is to the timing and relevance of the discussion - not the actual proposed ASF incubation per se.
-
@andyc Yes but search here for ex & see how often it's actually called that. Formal name kinda thing, Mr. Andrew Esq. :D
-
@andyc You make a very persuasive point in less-than-or-equal-to 140 characters. Besides, I was procrastinating over going to bed.

@josh Yes - I knew you would counter with that. So devs call it 'CouchPotato'. Doesn't matter. The Web site <title> is 'Apache Couch Potato'
-
@andyc I get that & essentially agree. I wonder what happened to 0.6.1, but maybe all work on that's been via IRC & I've missed it.
-
@josh Listen - I don't understand what ASF incubation means, can't be bothered looking and I'm not even qualified to have a view. But I do.
-
@andyc I've stopped, but fretted about deleting t-account b/c I don't want anyone else to get that great name :). What happens to old posts?
-
@josh Oh you mean that vital fix that fixed a basic ACL problem that broke Habari. Dunno. Probably waiting for ASF approval to ship after QA
-
@josh Good suggestion. Done. Thanks also to @edythemighty for the video.
-
@stav Old inane drivel is in the bin where it belongs.
-
@stav what? o.o what about me?
-
@stav Is this your T account ? http://ur1.ca/3e98 ? 3 following, 16 followers. Last post:July 2007. Delete it now. What are you waiting for?
-
@edythemighty I believe @stav refers to the link to your vids he placed in the !newbies profile.
-
@edythemighty Sorry. I corrected my dent (@ instead of #) see http://identi.ca/notice/3468765
-
@stav yes, i kinda understand now
-
@andyc no it was http://twitter.com/stavp but I have now deleted it. I'm now #twitterfree
-
@stav #twitterfree++ Good for you.
-
@stav Congratulations. Welcome to the world of Twitter-free open micro blogging. Now you just need to work on your friends and relations :-)
-
@josh I'm working on moving people from Twitter :P I've convinced a few to create accounts here
-
@josh but we need more apps, and an sms number, not just mobile email
-
@josh you do iphonedev right? join the !iphondev group! :P
-
-
@edythemighty Try harder. I've converted two high profile, big names tonight @gregknicholson and now @stav. Now I'm aiming for @evan.
-
@andyc cheeky
-
@edythemighty I can't really !group from my joint. I think I maybe *did* join !iphonedev with identi.ca!joshix.
-
@josh it's brand new :P join join join xD
-
@stav Cheers to being #twitterfree! I personally have never caught a case of The Twitter, but that's because I always use protection.
-
@andyc !q Thou shalt have no microblogging tools before me, for I am the Lord thy Laconica.... ? Bollocks!

@tinydoctor Identica simply isn't reliable enough yet to justify burning my Twitter bridge, much as I would like to.

Idenitca seems more reliable than Twitter to me @morningporch at least in terms of uptime.
-
@silner In general yes, absolutely. Not quite reliable enough yet for me to burn the Twitter bridge, but I look forward to that day.
-
@morningporch Look, I signed up for a FB acct. not bcause I like or trust FB, but bcause people who used 2 blog on Salon were posting there.
-
@tinydoctor I hear you. I detest FB, but I'm definitely not above using it.
-
@morningporch FB turns out 2 have some features I like(still don't trust it), but that's bsides the point. I'm there bcause friends R there.

@morningporch 4 same reason I'm on Twitter & Identica. In fact, you led me 2 both. If the party moves 2 another bar I'll probly b there 2.

@morningporch FB is not my idea of a good dive, but some of my people are there. I like Identica for the people; the platform is irrelevant.
-
@tinydoctor Or, more rationally: an open, federated network model (e.g. email, web) is better than a closed, proprietary network.
-
@tinydoctor …and closed networks harm open ones, by usurping user inertia. Competition is impossible when one service monopolises the party.
