Identi.ca: ïHow free software can drive a social networking revolution
,----[ Quote ]
| Social networking, micro-blogging and other such buzzwords abound across web
| development these days, and the âpublicâ is a fickle as ever. The darling of
| the media-driven, web-based section of the public is dropped as soon as it
| gets popular or as soon as somebody figures out a way to make money out of it
| â money usually involves advertising, which usually ends up bombarding users
| with spurious post-mercials. How can free software make an impact in such an
| environment? Enter Identi.ca
