For me it doesn't offer anything new, even if it was free why would people use it over twitter which has millions of users and content. I doubt it will succeed

For me it doesn't offer anything new, even if it was free why would people use it over twitter which has millions of users and content. I doubt it will succeed unless they rethink it's purpose.

App.net got rolling when the Twitter started issuing letters suggesting that developers will no longer have wide-open access to their API, would be limited in the number of users they could have for their clients, and started sending advertisements into their stream. If none of that matters to you, then, right now, Alpha / App.net will not have any value to you. Check back in six months when there are more applications and activity.
