DISQUS

I tried Magpie, and I found it to be a major annoyance, so I totally agree with you there.

But Twitter has replaced blogging, in many ways, so don't be too quick to throw them under the bus.

Great post, Angela. I think in-tweet ads, should they catch on, might be enough to drive me away from Twitter. It's one thing to integrate advertising into the UI but to actually make it seem like my tweeple are the ones promoting the products or services? ya, that's not cool.

Spot on! :)

The sad part is that it's the promise of easy money that is luring our twitterpals in these hard economic times to join a service that can only hurt their twitter experience.

I must be following some good Tweeps because I haven't seen an ad yet!
