FTA: Just like an email list... That was what I was thinking. Email is technically not push but there's not really a noticeable difference. His Broadcast Twitter is richer and looks slicker but you have to sign up for another service and download an app to use it. I can't even browse what broadcasts are available. Why would anyone (who hasn't already drank the Kool-Aid) sign up? Also this whole App.net thing is pretty weird. I thought it was intended for paid users only? Or did they find it hard to have a lucrative developer platform with no users? sidenote: Snark and cynicism are the two hallmarks of shitty HN posts so I'm sorry. I feel like I'm in some alternate universe where people are building weird shiny things that nobody wants. Maybe this is a sign I'm getting old.
