     @fabsh @bkuhn IMHO identi.ca IS better than proprietary...just that it's a better Twitter, thus is inherently limited. Not straightforward.

     @keithzg Yep. Whereas Google+ is a better Facebook. Ideally, we could do with a better Facebook that's also FOSS.

     @keithzg Nobody did anything on identica's UI for over a year now. It's not better than proprietary alternatives anymore...

     @fabsh I dunno, Twitter's lack of proper threading or groups hobbles it, and people have rightly lambasted its latest web changes.

     @fabsh To be clear, I prefer Google+ as a setup to identi.ca; I think that 140char limit fundamentally handicaps what it could become.

     @keithzg I am not talking about functionality, mostly UI. identica has needed a UI overhaul for months on end and now it's too late IMO.

     @fabsh Fair enough, I guess I use clients so I don't notice much. I do think Twitter's gone backwards, but if G+ is compared then G+ wins.

     @fabsh I guess my thought was that, limited as the structure is, UI redesign is handicapped. Thus the backlash over Twitter's UI overhaul.

     @nigeldgreen what prevalence? No current client for symbian or midp is there? left fighting over-js'd web
