Jive.ly - a one-man attempt to better Twitter?
- Zev 18y agoI wouldn't call it a serious attempt to better Twitter. It seems too focused on mobile media, not desktop media; the only filetypes you can upload (jpeg, mp4, 3gp and xvid) are typically found on cell phones. But it hasn't come close to success (or even beta status, really) yet. There's no public API. It doesn't let you upload audio files. Its website needs a lot of work still for desktop usage and a mobile version doesn't even exist yet. Competition is great, but this doesn't look to be it for Twitter. Not yet at least.
- voidfiles 18y agoGood on him for trying, but twitter has the momentum. Twitter is a okay to good idea, executed extremely well. They got enough people on board that new, and intresting behaviors emerged. I am not certain that just technically doing what twitter does is good enough to do what twitter does.
