Micro-blogging

[Travis Newman]

Great idea Scott. I'll do this after work. Do you (or anyone else) know if
there is a way to make an identi.ca account postable by multiple users? With
grouptweet we have it so that multiple people can send direct messages to
@ubuntu_virginia, and they will be posted to the @ubuntu_virginia account.
If we could do something similar with identi.ca, that would be ideal.
