Thanks for the kind words. Hopefully we will see some good ones :)

Of course Identi.ca as well. I hate to say this, but Twitter is way better
in terms of reaching people, so I tend to sling the word Twitter around
quite a bit. It is kind of like that silly word Google. I google all the
time, just with Bing.com. HAHA JUST KIDDING! Hey, I would like to see one
of these integrated pages you are talking about. That sounds like a good
idea, and I was thinking of just have a small box with recent tweets/dents.
I set up ubuntuchicago on both twitter and identica. I will look into
having a way for ~ubuntu-members to send tweets on behalf of the accounts.
