Where am I?
In an effort to let people know where exactly I am I have compiled the following quick blurb and the Pips after that:
Microblogging - I am sitting at both Jaiku and Twitter.
I like the commenting in Jaiku, but feature seem a bit too Nokia driven right now for me to be able to use them easily. That said, the Jaiku is getting my twitter stream so any mobile Tweets will show up, along with the rest of my web presence. I am using TwitKu to update from the web, and the twitter short code available form twitter for mobile
Tumblog- Kalidor's Tumblog
Tumblr is more of a test for random images and links and stuff I think is kewl.
Blog - Vox
I am posting to this, using the LJ link so LJ gets the post too. Eventually gonna migrate to Unwired but I really need to play with the code over there.
Pictures - Gallery
Pictures posted here. Gallery needs some tweaking but it's here

I decided ro subscribe to Jaiku.... The design was what decided me and that you can explore the site before subscribring... Jaiku seems more open to the public. Idid even a look up to google. It's almost impossible to find a twitter account, where jaiku site are easily found. Ok, I regret that jaiku wants the service SMS centered. I'm using only the web interface.
As you, I've been subscribed to a lot of service. Where am I ? Right in the center of the circle. Every site and service is a usefull service. I'm trying not to have twice a similar service.
I can certainly see where you are comng from on twitter. The thing is for me Microblogging makes much more sense from my mobile, where typing out a long entry is painful if not impractical. Jaiku's main focus seemed to initially be on microblogging but they are really focusing more on the presence side now; which is kewl.
My complaint with the Nokia Centric nature is really from a code design aspect. Coding for S60 only gives you a rather limited user base for the application. While java applettes exist the don't seem to be very robust. Even the Nokia client probably needs to see some design work based on it draining some cellphones from what appears to be constant updating. Nothing wrong with that but i'd like to see a mode that only accesses the radio when it changes cells, on user reques, or a user set timer (I would probably set 15 minutes).
Anyhow, thanks for yor insight.
