plasticbag : The lovely Lane Becker has made a reasonable argument for why Pownce is competing with 37Signals rather than Twitter! - (1) Yes, Twitter is going for an infrastructure play with social stuff a gateway drug while (2) Pownce is focused with sharing/socialising. But Pownce still seems to me to be—at its core—a life backchannel rather than a productivity aid.
veen : Pownce is competing with 37Signals, not Twitter! - " I've come to the realization that Pownce has nothing on Twitter -- Pownce is gunning for Jason Fried."
