deusx : Pownce: Pownce documents self-promotion API - "You know what an application programming interface really is? An admission that you're too poor, cheap, or uncreative to build all the features your website needs." True, except that anyone who doesn't admit this is lying.

factoryjoe : Pownce: Social Networks aren’t Identity Networks ~ Chris Pirillo - Interesting. Someone just told me that I was on Pownce - which is odd, because I never signed up for an account.

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.

plasticbag : Really enjoying having a play with Pownce. It is to Twitter as Typepad was to Blogger. - Don't know whether that's a good thing or not. Really classy experience though. Very shiny, well-implemented, friendly and fun. No idea if it can get traction at this point though.
