• I’ve been in a real, deep, down, funk these past couple of months.  I’m working on this and starting to regain myself.
• Due to that, I have neglected my blogging and online communities.  That changes now.
• I was luck enough to get an invite to alpha test for chi.mp.  You can see that here.
• @Phyrdancer , one of my Twitter friends, was kind enough to design a favicon for my chi.mp page.
• Twitter Travels is defunct.  Due to many, many issues that I will not go into here.
• I will be arranging all of the Developmental Theology 089 lessons into an ebook format for free download in the coming weeks.
• The Basic Ideology 101 articles will start coming up again.  Look for them. 
• I spend a lot of my free time on my Xbox 360 these days.  You can find me there with the handle “jacklhasa.”  You can also read about it here.
• I’ve been trying to keep up my tumblr account.  This will also get better.
• I spend more time looking at kwippy and friend feed than twitter these days.
• I’m currently working on something in the background.  Revelations to come.

Well, I think that about covers it for now.  You’re gonna start seeing actual “content” from me again.  Worth while stuff, I hope.  Stay tuned.

Twitter is always down and some features don’t work, people moved to Friend Feed.  People realized that Friend Feed’s user interface was complete crap and came back to Twitter.  Twitter still having the same issues and not moving forward in any noticeable way, when Plurk lauched there was a mass exodus.  Now Plurk is putting us through the same bullshit as Twitter.  Down half the time, not all of the features work, etc, etc, etc.

I think Brightkite might be the only reliable microblogging site left.   I’ve yet to see it go down.

So the question remains, can someone get a microblogging site together, fuck all the frills and special features, we just need something that is reliable, supports SMS(in the US, unlike Jaiku), and allows posting via IM.

Throw everything else out the window, it’s worthless and just causes more and more issues.  I don’t care about my karma score.  I don’t care about rooms or cliques.  Just make it work.  Can it be that hard?

But what do I know?  I just listen.
