I agree, and the solution must be to provide a service that is useful even when not many people are using it. For example, could an rstat.us account be set up so that everything published on it is automatically republished on the user's Twitter and facebook accounts, and any replies from those places published back to rstat.us?
- Hawramani 16y agoThis is a great idea! (So long as Twitter doesn't block it)
- recoiledsnake 16y agoThat will make the incentive for Twitter users to get rstat.us accounts a round zero. Exactly what Buzz tried, remember how badly that failed?
- _frog 16y agoIt already posts updates to your twitter feed if you sign in with that account and I've heard they'll be adding that feature to standard accounts soon.
