In the big bad world of “Presence” there were two competitors. Twitter, which causes hundreds of people to exceed their text message allowances and Jaiku, the quieter, not quite so noisy runner up.
Today, Google bought Jaiku!
I’d read Scoble and dozens of others going on about these presence applications but never really knew where to go from there. I mean, I don’t really get Facebook and I don’t think I know enough people who would care about my little online status.
Anyway, kudos to the Jaiku team.
