[...] I remember a lot of talk in the past about how important personal privacy is. However, reality has shown us that there are benefits to giving up some privacy. The large benefit that people have noticed recently is social on the web. It’s so easy now to stay in touch with acquaintances, collaborate on a project and keep a central address book. The problem now is that social media has turned into a bunch of disparate systems. Every popular social platform is a closed system with separate “namespacing” and logins. The login issue is one I think we will always have to deal with. The namespacing problem however is a much larger issue – it is already tough to namespace based on your given name if it is fairly common. We need some sort of “domain” separation (like email or jabber). Maybe it is time for another bearhug? [...]

There will be a Microblogging Conference (MBC09) in Hamburg, Germany in the end of January 2009. The reaction in the crowd is huge. Here is the first blogpost in my blog: http://tinyurl.com/MBC09-Hamburg … Evan from identica will probably attend. Are you coming too, Steve?

Finally, the beginning of the real communication highway. I only hope it will eliminate a lot of the overlap we see in communications some day. We can only hope that it will expand to a loosely coupled ability to use voice tweets, video, and anything else in a coherent fashion.

I have always thought of Twitter as to the communication highway as Arpnet or its children were to the information highway. Good luck, perhaps we won’t see so many people with annoying Friend feed messages in Twitter. It’s like calling a speaker phone with another speaker phone next to it which is connected to the person to whom you are speaking.
