For almost a couple of seconds there I thought this was about Twit.tv. But, you know, there's always room for one more community.

You know, to be honest, I was at one time (last week) toying with the idea of creating my own blogger account. But, you know something else? Forums is where people mostly meet, or read up on each other.

dr_macuk, thanks for the blog address, as I may be visiting you sometime in the near future!

P.S. Sorry admin, but I'm going to make Macfora my second home. Hope you can live with that.

P.P.S. dr_macuk, I really like this twitterific software, as it mostly allows people to have this widget-like scrolling-pane displayed on their desktops, so that they can see immediately which friend or other who has created the latest post.

I thought I'd signed up for Twitter awhile ago but apparently not. I'm creative - name for it is fyldig.

It's really addictive even if you don't post a lot it's worth it just to see what others are doing you get to see some good stuff on the internet that you otherwise would never have seen, it's also a really good way to communicate a group of people. I am now following you fyldig

I was looking at Pownce as well. Seems like the same thing, except with file posting. I like the pane for Twitter a lot more though, especially since I can click it on/off from the menu.

I have Pownce too. After running both side by side I preferred twitter, I think it's just the indirectness about it I found with Pownce because I could send messages to a member privately I did which defeated the point really
