Jaiku offers the same 140 character microblogging option as Twitter. But there's more. Jaika also enables users to start conversation threads from each post. Each post is a conversation starter. That interactive component has enabled me to meet and talk with new, interesting people both on business and personal levels. Jaiku is also a webfeed aggregator, so you and members of your group can also see updates from your blog(s) posts, FlickR (photos), Digg, De.licio.us, LastFM, and any other webfeeds. My question to you: do you think the elements of conversation and webfeeds can elevate the core microblogging experience above the criticisms of Helen Popkin in MSNBC?
