I just took a look at Jaiku, and at first glance I can already see it's cleaner and more professional. I also found a Jaiku WordPress plugin <a href=http://www.douglaskarr.com/projects/jaiku-plugin/ rel="nofollow">here</a>. It may be time for a test drive. Thanks for the tip, Roscoe!

I had become increasingly disgusted by the 1.) unacceptable "signal-to-noise" ratio of the twits, 2.) the all too frequent Twitter system downtimes, and 3.) the spam that would sometimes appear in my twitter "badges" that seemed to come from the Twitter system itself. After canceling my Twitter account, I found <a href="http://www.jaiku.com/" rel="nofollow">jaiku</a>, a system similar to Twitter but older, more stable, European based, and catering to a more mature, tech savvy user base. For the last several months I've been much happier with Jaiku than I ever was with Twitter. I joined Twitter back in January, but left after a few months.
