New unusual microblogging service

I can not understand why microblogging services develop their own protocols, a bunch of similar programs for different platforms, suffer from the support of SMS-gates. After all, there is a Jabber with a lot of clients for every taste and color, including for mobile phones. The user can update his blog using the client program he is used to, which he uses every day. So the idea was born ...

So, today opens for public testing a new microblogging service Juick . It is unusual in that the publication of blog posts is carried out exclusively using the Jabber protocol. And he does not require registration and does not strain the fictional restrictions of 140 characters. You can subscribe to someone else’s blog via Jabber or via RSS. Another feature: the ability to comment on posts in someone else's blog. If you are subscribed to someone's blog via Jabber and you received a new message, you can write an answer in the same window. Your comment will be published on the page with the original post.

If you want to take part in testing , add the user juick@juick.com to your contact list and write him, for example, “Hello!”. Pro subscription and special commands can be found on the help page .

If you do not use Jabber, you can simply read what others are writing: juick.com . For example, here is my blog: juick.com/ugnich@jabber.zp.ua/ .
